How to use utf-16 strings ?

[morgot]

Hello,
In 32 bit masm was good macro uni$, but in 64 bit this not exists.

I see 2 variants:
1.

Code Select Expand

str1 dw 's','t','r','o','k','a',0,0
2. use TimoVJ program to convert via

Code Select Expand

str dw 73h,74h,72h,6Fh,6Bh,61h,0

but maybe someone wrote simpler macros?

Hi morgot,

In code section perhaps work:

Code Select Expand

uni$ MACRO RegAux, arglist:VARARG
      LOCAL DATA@NAME
      WSTR DATA@NAME,arglist
      lea &RegAux, DATA@NAME
      EXITM <&RegAux>
    ENDM


Use?:

Code Select Expand

uni$(rax, stroka)

[morgot]

Don't works.

Code Select Expand


uni$(rax,"rundll.dll")
invoke LoadLibraryW,uni$(rax,"rundll.dll")


and my masm64 don't know WSTR - in macros64\macros64.inc

Hi morgot,

You can import the required macros to your source code. Attached is a quick example.

Thank Vortex, it's very good!
but uni$ macro don't work, only WSTR

Hi morgot,

Some slight modifications in the original macros ( practical solution ) :

Code Select Expand

uni$ MACRO arglist:VARARG
      LOCAL UCdata
      WSTR UCdata,arglist
      EXITM <ADDR UCdata>
    ENDM

uni2$ MACRO arglist:VARARG
      LOCAL UCdata
      WSTR UCdata,arglist
      EXITM <OFFSET UCdata>
    ENDM

Code Select Expand

include \masm32\include64\masm64rt.inc
include UnicodeMacros.asm

.data

WSTR format,"%s"

.code

start PROC

    invoke  vc_wprintf,uni$("%s"),uni$("This is a UNICODE test.",13,10)

    mov     rdx,uni2$("This is the second UNICODE test.",13,10)

    invoke  vc_wprintf,ADDR format,rdx

    invoke  ExitProcess,0

start ENDP

END


A better version of uni$ is required here to handle both of the usage cases above.
