if-elseif Mab's macros for floating comparisons

Hi all!

Some extension of Mabdelouahab's macros that allow floating point numbers comparisons for conditional flow easily (usually it's not so simple because early expansion).

  mov wParam, 1
    mov pMsg, WM_PAINT
    mov lParam, 3

    fSlv8 alor1 = 1.5
    fSlv8 alor2 = 2.2

    @if wParam eq 1
      @if lParam ne 3 || pMsg eq WM_COMMAND
        @if wParam gt 1 || wParam lt 4
          print "  ----------------------------------------",13,10
          print "  Ain't Mabdelouahab's runtime comparisons great",13,10
          print "  ----------------------------------------",13,10
        @endif
      @elseif alor1 fGT 1.0 && alor2 fNE 2.0
          print "  ----------------------------------------",13,10
          print "  Is working? Yes",13,10
          print "  ----------------------------------------",13,10
      @else
          print "  ----------------------------------------",13,10
          print "  Nothing ",13,10
          print "  ----------------------------------------",13,10
      @endif
    @endif
   

I was developing almost exactly the same :biggrin:, but discovery of Mab's macros save me to make most difficult part (comparison expansion)  :thumbsup:

Hi all!!

Some extensions for unsigned comparisons and check floting point:    run_time_comparisons MACRO

Some problem with registers. Work perfectly eax lt ebx (opcodes are same that MASM HLL eax < ebx), but fails eax ub ebx.

Regards, HSE.

Later: Because macros are not sofisticated the wrong operation is founded:  eaxubebx instead eaxubebx  :biggrin: very funny

Hi all !!

Because letters to identify integer comparisons are so common, original macros can have a lot of problems.

I replaced spaces remotion with filling, in this case "___"(three underscores). Then no more conflicts.

Right now requiere single spaces, but everybody can improve that  :biggrin:

Files in first post.

 :biggrin: Here a test in 64 bits using ML64.

Line 28 must be commented because qWord only tested SmplMath for 64 bits in JWASM, that was before invoke macro for ML64:
Code (Math.inc) Select
ELSEIF @WordSize EQ 8
IFNDEF __JWASM__
; .err <The SmplMath System requires JWASM for x86-64 support>
fslv_glb_error = 1
ENDIF
