Window In Asm

[Guest sonic_00]

I'm back (after months )

well i'm trying to learn MASM and i've copied the code of lioczar's tutorial on a new file in Quick Editor, just to see if it works, but it doesn't. Why?

The code:

what doesn't work?.. maybe u need the .inc files set up.. or the directory's.. be more specific please!

it seems that the errors are in windows.inc file...but i'm not sure...

What command are you using to compile it?

And (forgive the stupi but obvious question) have you definately installed to c:\MASM?

[Guest sonic_00]

1) from QEDITOR: Project/Assemble ASM file

(or Project/Assemble & Link, same result)

2) C:\masm32... i've not done something strange, just installed it with the setup procedure...

what a mistery...

Is there a link to this tut online? Googled for lioczar but got nothing

[Guest sonic_00]

argh! i've done a mistake! the author is Iczelion... i'm studying on his tut...third lesson...but my copy of the tut is translated in italian, so if i give you the link i think you wouldn't understand anything...

link to the tut

[Loki]

There must be something wrong with your setup - have you rebooted since installing MASM? Not sure if it sets up some env variables which require a reboot? Either reboot or reinstall and then reboot - beyond that I'm stumped I'm afraid.

Either way, I just copied the code from tut 3 into QEditor and it compiled and linked fine.

[Guest sonic_00]

oh my god...i'm unlucky as always...

i'll try to reinstall it and reboot

Edited July 13, 2007 by sonic_00

[Rumour]

If installed masm on C:\ only compile C drive from

If no work: installate winasmstudio same drive.

[Guest sonic_00]

ey! i've copied the code from the original tut and it WORKS! so the code in my version was wrong...sorry for all this and thanks for the patience...

[dmesg]

You forgot one line

however when you're includeding windows.inc, you have to set option casemap:none

so your first lines have to look like this:

.386
.model flat,stdcall
option casemap:none
