ObjAsm C.1.0 release

[Biterider]

Hi
I've finished the the ObjAsm C.1.0 release version adding some translated projects and a few new projects.

Homepage link: http://objasm.x10host.com/
Download link: http://objasm.x10host.com/DwnFiles/Ver_C.1/ObjAsm_C.1-WebInstaller.exe

I spend some time writing a WebInstaller using NSIS. In its current version (3.04) it is a very powerful tool. Although not a new tool, it offers all the features you need for a modern installer. To reduce the download size, I tested several compressing tools. The best for this purpose is by far 7zip, which I used for the installer.

Please test it and feedback is as always appreciated.

Looks like it works fine. It does ask about rebooting computer at the end of installation though.

Hi fearless
Thanks for testing!
This is the intended behavior to ensure that the new environment variables are properly propagated.

Hi Biterider,

I have problems with paths ...
MSVS_PATH=%programfiles(x86)%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.22.27905\bin\Hostx64\x64
RADASM_PATH=D:\RadAsmXXX

I do not have these directories, it would be cool if during installation, you could specify the path to these directories.

The web installer is very convenient

Hi LiaoMi
Thanks for your feedback. 
I documented what to do in the (manual) installation notes. The affected files that uses these 2 paths are \ObjAsm\Build\OA_SET.cmd and \ObjAsm\Code\ObjMem\InstallObjMem.cmd. The last one is only relevant if you use RadASM. MSVS_PATH on the other side is important to locate the link and lib utilities.

I'll try to put some input boxes to ask for these paths during installation. In the meantime, please adjust them manually. 

Regards, Biterider

Fantastic the installer

Hi HSE
I think it was you idea to build a Web Installer

Hi
I took LiaoMi's idea and added a custom page to setup the environment variables. 
I polished a bit the code and uploaded a new version of the installer.

The link is the same as above.

LiaoMi's idea! (but after download the ten pieces I agree totally  )

Hi Biterider,

all files have a modified creation date, October 2017, in the archives this date is also visible, what is the reason for this change? 

[Biterider]

Hi LiaoMi
I normalized all timestamps for all files from this release, so it becomes easier to check what has been modified afterwards.
The new timestamp corresponds to the start of this third main release of ObjAsm.

What wrong with it?
I am using ObjAsm C.1.0 with UASM 2.49.

Hi 2B||!2B
I notice 2 things here:

1. "C:\masm32\bin\ML.EXE /c /coff /Cp..." you are using ML , not UASM
2. "WARNING: Legacy SysSetup argument - WINDOWS - using WIN32" you are using probably one of the projects from previous versions.

I suggest to make a fresh install and verify all environment variables. Sometimes a reboot is required to load them with the new values.

Hi Bitrider,

No, the ML.exe is actually the UASM itself. I have renamed it to be that so all radasm projects use it by default.

Hamlet:
There is some differences between OA32 and OAF.
Because spacename, now you must write $Obj(DialogAbout)  or OA_DialogAbout .
Now you have to make New without Init, and later OCall object Init.
