Adding two numbers with MASM32 ?

> It is not necessary include the path in the source if you tell it to the compiler/linker

There are many ways to build an executable, set the environment, add the paths to the ML and LINK lines but the best way to confuse a person learning is to flood them with options.

[caballero]

Which option if everything goes in a batch? I guess that the confusing comes from he uses a text editor with predefined options. IE, why am I going to use the batch he gave me?

Before your exit of the program, use the macro "inkey". That stops the app until you press any key.

Sorry this is my first time with MASM32 SDK , Where do i add that code ?

After you display the result.

Here is a test piece.

A suggestion.

Use .686p instead of .386 and you can use later instructions.

> IE, why am I going to use the batch he gave me?

Lets look at a few options.
1. Set the paths in the OS. Tough if you want multiple environments.
2. Set the paths using "set" in the build batch file. Fine if you already know how to do it.
3. Manually add the paths to the ML and LINK command lines if you are familiar with both.

This is how you confuse someone who is starting to learn assembler, flood them with options.

But i cant get this program to work with inkey
It says

error A2008 : syntax error : inkey

[jj2007]

It will work perfectly if you follow the handful of instructions I gave you in reply #38.

inkey is one of the macros that get included with the one-liner include \masm32\include\masm32rt.inc, which replaces everything before cdMaxSize  EQU 11:

Code: [Select]

include \masm32\include\masm32rt.inc
cdMaxSize  EQU 11

.DATA?
...
The masm32rt.inc one-liner is the standard way of writing an assembler program. No special options or batch files required, just pick the "Console assemble & link" menu in \masm32\qEditor.exe, and it will build your program.

In case you still have doubts where to place the inkey:

    invoke     StdOut, eax
    inkey " - it works, hooray!!!"
    INVOKE     ExitProcess, 0

the best way to confuse a person learning is to flood them with options.

When using "include \masm32\include\masm32rt.inc", you don't need those lines above it, masm32rt.inc takes care
of .386, .model, option, etc...

As you can see, it takes care of loading the listed include (.inc) files, and libraries (.lib) , as well as a more recent cpu (.486)
plus, it loads macros.asm, so you have more macros at your immediate disposal. Macros makes programming in assembler really easy.

[sunshine33]

Thank you caballero for the original code ,
Thank you zedd151 for explaining that ,
Suddenly i feel like i can learn this properly

 

[deeR44]

    mov num1, val(pbuf1)        ; convert input strings to numbers
    mov num2, val(pbuf2)

What is "val"?

[NoCforMe]

It's a macro. Look in ...\masm32\macros\macros.asm.

Actually ends up invoking the function crt__Xtoi(), where X can be either a for ANSI or w for Unicode (for "wide").

[jj2007]

What is "val"?

    mov num1, val(pbuf1)        ; convert input strings to numbers

[deeR44]

Thanks, guys,
I appreciate it!
