INVOKE error when compile x64 with VS2019

[yrendy]

Hi guys, Im new with masm. Tried to compile simple program that calling

ExitProcess proto

but when I tried to compile it says

error A2008:syntax error : invoke

I tried the normal call with manual registry assign to RCX and its working.

My ml64 version: 

Macro Assembler (x64) Version 14.23.28106.4

I also tried example from Mikl__'s ml64 examples and it works whenever no INVOKE syntax.
Is this ml64 specific problem with vs2019?

ML64 does not have a default "invoke", it can only be done with the pre-processor. The 64 bit version of MASM64 has this capacity.

Oh okay thanks hutch. Been searching for an hour why the invoke doesnt work

Hi, yrendy!
for use "invoke" I connect the file win64a.inc
