Title: How to use MASM32 include?
Post by: anta40 on February 16, 2016, 09:00:02 PM
This is a project, which doesn't build under EasyCode v2.00.0.0011

Quote
============== addr - Debug ==============

Assembling: addr
addr.asm(21) : error A2008:syntax error : str$

Of course I've added masm32.inc and masm32.lib into the project definition.
The zipped project is attached.

Add \masm32\macros\macros.asm

OK, I've added \masm32\macros\macros.asm so it's enlisted in the include section at EasyCode.

Now I get more errors

I think str$ need msvcrt.inc and .lib.

Sorry, dwtoa is in masm32.inc, and it's already included in the project.

OK, for the record:
- no, it doesn't need the CRT
- yes, it does need macros.asm

If you don't believe me, go to line 55 in the attachment and comment out the macros.asm line.

include \masm32\include\masm32rtNoCRT.inc  ; ATTACHED

Hi anta40,

Attached is your project corrected and working fine.

The Easy Code macros option, in the Project Properties, has been removed to avoid conflicts with the MASM32 macros.
