[mov foo.init, offset blablabla]

The Campus / invoking an offset procedure

Last post by LordAdef - January 14, 2025, 04:19:06 AM

Hi guys,

I've got a struct, and I saved a proc offset in order to call it:
mov foo.init, offset blablabla

All is good and I can call the proc:
call foo.init

But I want to use invoke and send values. Prototyping the proc doesn't help:
invoke foo.init, 12, 34, 23

Any ideas?
Cheers
Alex

ps: I re-introduced myself in the welcome forum

What kind of communication should there be?

I'm using almost same Hutch's Simple inter application communication with RegisterWindowMessage and HWND_BROADCAST. Very easy.

LookingFor is an example.

True.  I never considered communications between instances.  What kind of communication should there be?

Hi Villuy,

MASM gives an error:

Look like RC.exe error. What version you have? (and what ml.exe?)  That was.

They look nice, no doubt, but they are in *.png format...

Very interesting, I don't know that. New .ico versions can be .png inside, with a little diferent file header

I have bypassed problem by using rc.exe from Microsoft SDK.

Hi Jim!

Let me know if still confusing please.

New windows are not new program instances, and you can communicate between them. But there is no communication between instances.

The Campus / Problem with .ico

I try to add icon to .res file:

MASM gives an error:

error RC2176: old DIB in MyIcon.ico; pass it through SDKPAINT

Some files are ok, but most are like this. Apparently MASM not understands modern .ico file formats.
