The

.$ELSEIF

and

.$ELSE

assembler directives can only appear between enclosing

.$IF

and

.$ENDIF

directives. It is not valid for the

.$ELSEIF

and

.$ELSE

direc-

tives to appear in any other context.

The

.$ELSE

directive does not have any parameters.

The

.$ENDIF

directive does not have any parameters.

None of the

.$IF

,

.$ELSEIF

,

.$ELSE

, and

.$ENDIF

assembler directives can be

labeled. If a label is specified, a warning message is issued, and the label is discarded.

REPEAT Structured Assembly Block Inputs

The

.$REPEAT

,

.$BREAK

,

.$CONTINUE

, and

.$UNTIL

assembler directives are used to

test execution-time conditions and conditionally execute object code based on the results
of the test.

Syntax

.$REPEAT

[ .$IF condition2 ] [; comment ] ]

.$UNTIL

The following qualifications elaborate the syntax and semantics of the structured assembly
test directives. Unless otherwise specified, violations of these qualifications cause the
assembly to fail.

The

.$REPEAT

and

.$UNTIL

assembler directives must be specified in that order.

The

.$BREAK

assembler directive is optional. It can be specified an arbitrary number

of times between the

.$REPEAT

and

.$UNTIL

assembler directives.

The

.$CONTINUE

assembler directive is optional. It can be specified an arbitrary

number of times between the

.$REPEAT

and

.$UNTIL

directives.

Any valid assembler statement can appear in the statements sections of the structured
assembly test directives. This means, among other things, that structured assembly test
directives can be nested. The structured assembly test directives can be nested up to
255 levels.

Nested

.$BREAK

and

.$CONTINUE

directives are associated with the most recent

.$REPEAT

directive.

There is no preset limit on the number of statements that can appear in the statements
sections; there can be any number of assembler statements in each statements section,
including zero. The operating system file system might impose limitations on file
