Debug script not working

[Magnum]

Ithis works fine outside of Qeditor but not from within.

your batch file is missing some labels

:errasm
:errlink
:TheEnd

They are in it, just not listed.

[dedndave]

the problem may be related to the quotation marks around "{b}"
you can test that theory with

echo %1
if it is enclosed in double-quotes, then you wind up with things like
"myfile".asm

the double-quotes may be needed if the path (or filename) has space characters
the way to fix it is to remove the double-quotes, add the extension, then put the double-quotes back on

so - you need some batch code to remove the double-quotes
then, you can assign the resulting string to a temporary environment variable (let's use TEMPSTRING)
then, use it on a commandline as "%TEMPSTRING%.asm", "%TEMPSTRING%.obj", etc

as for the code to remove the double-quotes, i forget how - lol
it is a common task, so i am sure google can help

the fact is, i currently have a couple batch files i need to upgrade   :P

I forgot the masm32/bin path.

this demonstrates 2 methods of removing double-quotes - there is another way, also

btest.bat

Code Select Expand

@echo off
set TEMPSTR1="string 1"
set TEMPSTR2=%1
echo %TEMPSTR1%
echo %TEMPSTR2%
set TEMPSTR3=%TEMPSTR1:"=%
set TEMPSTR4=%~1
echo %TEMPSTR3%
echo %TEMPSTR4%

results:
