Any algorithm to only use pure win API to write async I/O like Node.js does?

[enzechen]

Could anyone describe some basic idea, e.g. API function, or suggest some book on this?

I think callback function might be one main solution. How could I introduce this type callback function into MASM programming?

Thanks a lot.

A callback is just a simple function (or PROC in MASM). It has to respect the signature described in MSDN and save registers as described in ABI.
Async I/O functions are also described in MSDN.

I find this topic for a long time. I want to talk about this, really.

Seems to be another lousy spam bot.

are you talking about WriteFile with an OVERLAPPED structure ?

or maybe WriteFileEx ?

you'll have to forgive that many of us don't know squat about java script   :lol:
that's because we can write in assembler
