UASM 2.46 Release

[johnsa]

jj, can you try assemble it using -nomlib command line option ?

No effect, linker chokes at exactly the same location as before. Sorry... :icon14:

[johnsa]

Hmm.. ok I was thinking perhaps the pre-processor additions were swallowing those lines for some reason, as nothing has been touched in extern/coff/obj output at all to warrant this sudden issue.

How do you declare the extern ? Maybe there is something else specific about the line

It is interesting that these vars are missing, have look here:

extern _DllTable: dword           extern _DllTable: dword   
extern _MbFH: dword               extern _MbFH: dword       
extern _MbExeFolder$: dword                                 
extern _Dw2BinBuffer: byte        extern _Dw2BinBuffer: byte

extern _CrLf$: dword                                         
extern _Lf$: dword                extern _Lf$: dword         

It's all in MasmBasic.inc:

etc...

align 4 ; end of MbDATA
.data ; common initialised data
align 4
CrLf$ dd CrLf_txt ; pointer to 0D0A
Cr$ dd Cr_txt ; chr(13)
Lf$ dd Lf_txt ; chr(10)
Tb$ dd Tab_txt ; chr(9)
MbExeFolder$ dd MbExFoBuf
MbDefNum dd 7 ; f2sPrec
MbError$ dd mcErrBuf

Nothing unusual; and it works with ML, UAsm 2.45 and earlier, AsmC, linkv615, linkv9, polink...

Hi habran and johnsa

Testing the example below, I get the following error message :

Mea culpa.. I completely forgot to add 32bit version ...  :icon_redface:
I'm adding in the 32bit macros now and have added in additional tests to the automated tests for these, will have that ready tomorrow :)
I also have an idea what might be causing the issue for JJ, it's not confirmed it's only a suspicion, fingers crossed though.

[johnsa]

x86/x64 packages updated with the fix for the issue JJ was experiencing.

Vortex, I've added the 32bit macros in now so your example works, it's also included as a regression test-case now and I've taken it one step further with a 2nd test case as follows:

F'ing hosting companies... it says the domain has expired on WHOIS, yet on their control panel it's paid up for another 2 years... wtf... time to fight

[GoneFishing]

Good sign
Looks like you've been noticed
Congrats and Take care

After experimenting with many others, I am using contabo.com (they are German  ) and am happy for the last couple of years. They have plans starting from a couple of bucks per month.
My plan is a VPS with windows and 2 extra IP, 1000 GB storage space, 4 cores, 14 GB RAM - all about 20 euro/month.

Hi johnsa,

Thanks for your efforts. I will wait for your site to be online so no worries. I know that those hosting companies can sometimes be real headaches. Take your time to fix the hosting issue and thanks again.

John,
Easiest solution: Zip up the exe only and post it here temporarily.

[fearless]

Why not just mirror the package releases on github? create a 'releases' folder on the main repo, put stuff in there and/or additionally add a 'Latest Release' on the releases page and have the packages linked there to the releases folder

Releases page:

tag: latest
Title: Latest Releases

## UASM
![uasm246_x64.zip](https://github.com/Terraspace/UASM/blob/master/releases/uasm246_x64.zip?raw=true)
![uasm246_x86.zip](https://github.com/Terraspace/UASM/blob/master/releases/uasm246_x86.zip?raw=true)

?raw=true in the url allows the file to be downloaded rather than github redirecting to the file and trying to display it then failing - because its binary and cant display raw.

Also you can create a github page - terraspace.github.io or uasm.github.io to mirror most of the information on terraspace.co.uk: see https://pages.github.com/ for details

[johnsa]

I'd thought about, it's useful to have the extra copy of the page and information on github directly with releases... I shall do that :)
