Nothing should be causing Enforcer hits. Requires an MMU. On 68EC030 systems, it may think it is working even if it is not due to the fact that the missing MMU is very hard to detect. Use LawBreaker to check. This Enforcer has also been highly optimized to be as fast as possible. Enforcer can now also be used with CPU or SetCPU FASTROM or most any other MMU-Kickstart-Mapping tool. This means that you do not have to give up your speed in order to use Enforcer. (Major win on A2000 and A500 systems) Make sure you read the documentation before using these programs. ***************** ** Read the DOCs ** ***************** Watch out since Enforcer does not get used the same as the old Enforcer. Remember, this thing is a completely different beast. ----- Changes from 37.72 To help prevent problems on some systems, Enforcer and MMU now will first try the 68060.library. Only if that does not open will Enforcer try the 68040.library Enforcer will now try to reduce the possible memory fragmentation that was happening during its allocation of alligned memory for the MMU table. Changes from 37.70 Added some hack to handle various 68060 library versions. Updated MMU so you can control-c it. Some documentation cleanup. Changes from 37.62 Added 68060 support. (See documentation) Added MMU tool. (See documentation) New examples of how to build a debugger to track Enforcer hits while debugging. (Enforcer.doc or Enforcer.Guide) A large amount of new documentation - only in the Enforcer.Guide file. This includes information on how 68040.library did the system patches and what implementers of 68060.library need to watch out for. A must read for any real hacker. Source code offer - detailed in the Enforcer.Guide file. (Yes, you can now get the source code to Enforcer!) Changes from 37.60 Updated FindHit to work with a larger variety of debugging information - which includes the new DICE compiler. Added ROM module scanning to SegTracker. This is useful since it will at least be able to tell you which ROM module was involved with the hit (and thus you can then better track what happened in your code.) Updated DOC and AmigaGuide files as needed. Note that I finally remembered to update my EMail address :-) Changes from V37.58: Tested against some more CPU boards and now should handle even the strangest of them. (I don't have these boards so I need reports from people in order to make sure Enforcer works on them.) Cleaned up the output of the Enforcer VERBOSE option and added more output to that option. Also added a check for a strange operation with certain CPU boards. Please send all comments to Michael Sinz. Enjoy...

There is ************ no reason to ever cause one if the software is written correctly. When Enforcer is running, the VBR is moved and even interrupt vector poking should work just fine without Enforcer hits. Software that causes Enforcer hits may not be able to run on future systems. In fact, such software may not even run on current systems.
