NENTRY - entry to a "near" function.

Usage:

[NAME,NAME,...]:  nentry  SYMDEF=>type

Where:

[NAME,NAME,...]

is a list of names that will be associated with this function. If no names are specified, the function has no associated name.

SYMDEF=>type

is an optional argument indicating whether you want the macro to create a SYMDEF for each of the names given in the label field. Possible forms are:

SYMDEF=>no: does not declare the names as SYMDEFs.
SYMDEF=>yes: declares the names as primary SYMDEFs. This is the default, if you do not specify any SYMDEF=>type argument.
SYMDEF=>secondary: declares the names as secondary SYMDEFs.

If you specify any other value in the "type" position, the names are not declared as SYMDEFs. Note that the "type" keywords are case-sensitive and must be specified in lowercase.

Description:

"nentry" is used at the beginning of a "near" function. Such functions may be called by the "nearcall" macro, using a TSX1 call. Near functions can only be called by code in the same segment as the function definition; thus the "nearcall" macro should be in the same segment as the "nentry" macro that starts the function definition.

Notes:

The functions "nearcall", "nearret", and "nentry" are not part of the EASEE standard. They are only appropriate in a restricted set of circumstances, e.g. for specialized library use.
