Windows Projects / Hyper v2.2.0

Last post by i Z ! - Today at 04:38:12 AM

Version 2.2.0
- Conversion from decimal with a negative exponent fixed (e.g. "1e-1000")
- Corrected Add(Int64, Exp) procedure, which was maybe causing to occasionaly misinterpret decimal output

Also I've put back up my website again with References page

if anyone cares to test... but it's still not code-signed so prepare for all kinds of warnings before installation

I moved these posts here to this New Topic, thinking that perhaps further useful & creative discussion might occur on the Topic but sadly, it seems Not,..

I have attempted to tidy it up and will leave it open, in the hope that further reasonable and civil discussion can occur

Assembly languages for non-x86 ISAs / Re: BeagleV Ahead: a RISC-V as...

Last post by lucho - October 08, 2024, 04:56:10 PM

He wrote that he's busy with his current books on x64 and ARM, and his future RISC-V book will be based on several SBCs, among which (I verified that) the BeagleV Ahead is still the fastest one. "The Art of ARM Assembly" is based on the ARM-based Mac running macOS and the 64-bit Raspberry Pi running Linux. So his examples can be studied also on my ARM machine, if one wishes so.

By the way, RISC-V is the ISA that has the minimum differences between its 32-bit and 64-bit versions. These differences are described in literally a few pages. This is one of its advantages.

Poasm / Process entry block sample

Last post by Vortex - October 08, 2024, 03:28:17 AM

Here is a quick sample :

Code Select Expand

.386
.model flat,stdcall
option casemap:none

include PEBstruct.inc

.data

msg1    db "OSMajorVersion= %u",13,10,13,10,0
msg2    db "OSMinorVersion = %u",0

.code

start:

    call    main
    invoke  ExitProcess,0

main PROC uses ebx

    invoke  RtlGetCurrentPeb
    mov     ebx,eax

    invoke  printf,ADDR msg1,\
            PEB.OSMajorVersion[ebx]

    invoke  printf,ADDR msg2,\
            PEB.OSMinorVersion[ebx]
    ret

main ENDP

END start

Last post by zedd151 - October 08, 2024, 02:35:24 AM

Thanks guys for the replies. 
It seems there are more members here than I had even thought, that use Visual Studio.
So I think if someone needs assistance in setting up VS + masm  (one of the SDKs that is) and posts questions in the Campus about any issues,  there is a high probability of their query being answered by someone with experience and knowledge with that scenario.  Thanks again.

Perhaps I was making much ado about nothing. And perhaps a separate board for Visual Studio+Masm SDK's is unwarranted. As suggested a "sticky topic" with helpful instructions might be all that is needed.
 Any thoughts? Any willing volunteers for that little task?

MACROS is a deprecated method for expanding text during assembly

Not really. Where you found that fallacy?

Remove the line include \masm64\include64\masm64rt.inc and let us know how you fare with no macros.
