is it possible to link in data file

[daydreamer]

Maybe Similar to static library,with some tiny proc that LEA to data to be used
Preferably bitmap data, to be read, not the kind of bitmap resource with handle to bitblt it,but pointer so can read data to map?
Maybe load as hex,save as binary options in QE can help?

Hello,

You can check this example :

http://masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=4642.msg49923#msg49923

[jj2007]

Code Select Expand

invoke FindResource, 0, ResID, RT_RCDATA ; get resource handle
xchg eax, ebx ; hRes
push rv(SizeofResource, 0, ebx) ; size in bytes
invoke LoadResource, 0, ebx ; returns pointer to content in eax

Demo (source & exe attached):

Code Select Expand

GuiParas equ "Embedded image", w500, h200, icon Lens
include \masm32\MasmBasic\Res\MbGui.asm
Event Paint
  GuiImage 123, fit
GuiEnd

This is the content of the rc file: 123 RCDATA "\\Masm32\\examples\\exampl04\\car\\car.jpg"

As long as it is in 32 bit, use the "fda.exe" or "fda32.exe" that comes with masm32 to make an object module.

assembler with INCBIN is a good option.

PellesC users have an AddiIn for that, File2Obj
