Ref: Your note of Tue, 25 Sep 2012 19:34:18 -0500 If I specify an immediate operand for CIJL which is outside the range -128 to +127 I get an instruction generated using the low 8 bits of the value, as observed by Robert Ngan, but I also get the following message:
ASMA320W Immediate field operand may have incorrect sign or magnitude This message can be suppressed by the assembler option TYPECHECK(NOMAGNITUDE) or NOTYPECHECK, but the default is TYPECHECK(MAGNITUDE), so the warning should be produced unless the checking has been specifically disabled.
