I finally am to the point where I no longer need to worry about specific
customers having hardware that does not support relative instructions,
so I am updating some macros I provide to be baseless.
What is the 'preferred' approach to macro generated constants? In the
past, I have used both inline constants that I branch around, and ltorg
literals (=c'x').
In the past, I have been bitten by using ltorg literals and the client
did not put a LTORG after my macro causing a 'no active base register'
issue. So, I am thinking inline with a BRAS is better.
Maybe there is another approach that I missed?
Suggestions?
