Title: GoAsm starting
Post by: pascaldelphinet on May 13, 2020, 07:32:36 AM
Hello,
I am starting with GoAsm and I am trying to compile an example Bonjour.asm
C: \ ASM \ GoAsm \ Bonjour>goAsm.exe Bonjour.asm
And I have an error
GoAsm.Exe Version 0.61.0.1 - Copyright Jeremy Gordon 2001-2017 - JG@JGnet.co.uk
Error!
Could not open assemble source file (Bonjour.asm)
OBJ file not made [/ I]
While if I type the command "TYPE Bonjour.asm" it works, I see the source on my screen.
Anyone have an idea or a tutorial on installing GoAsm?
---
Under WINDOWS 10 x64

I think you should write something like this:
GoAsm /fo Bonjour.obj Bonjour

I don't use goasm but that's what i found in the web page of the goasm manual . If you are going to use it, then have a look at it:

You have GoAsm running, so it looks like you have installed it OK and adjusted PATH to allow it to run from the command prompt. That should have worked, it does for me here on Windows 7 and 10. No ideas, other than perhaps you were only in C:\ASM\GoAsm running that command, in which case Bonjour.asm would not be found giving that error, so this would be needed instead:


C:\ASM\GoAsm>GoAsm.exe C:\ASM\GoAsm\Bonjour\Bonjour.asm

Thank you for your answers. I have already tested your comments and I have of course read the documentation.
But it still doesn't work.
I don't understand why.
If you know another modern EDI for x32 and x64 I am interested

I found a solution :
I launch GoAsm and GoLink in Windows 7 compatible mode
And now it works
Mystery

C:\ASM\GoAsm\Bonjour>Bonjour.exe
Bonjour le monde 2020 ! (from GoAsm)


Thanks for your help.

Good to know, thanks. Was there a similar issue with GoLink too? Once I finish putting together my new system running Windows 10 I shall see if I can better track down this mysterious incompatibility...
