MFMPlayer library troubles

[F0X]

I'm having some troubles with the mfmplayer library, seems the .lib file is no good.

Writing a keygen template in assembler, when I link I get this:

Assembling: H:\KEYGEN_BASE\main.asm

H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(1) : error A2008: syntax error : !

H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(2) : error A2044: invalid character in file

H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(3) : error A2044: invalid character in file

H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(3) : error A2039: line too long

H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(4) : error A2044: invalid character in file

H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(5) : error A2044: invalid character in file

etc. etc.

H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(100) : fatal error A1012: error count exceeds 100; stopping assembly

And all I do is, include mfmplayer.inc (which works fine ) then I include the library with includelib mfmplayer.lib

and I get those 100 errors... without the lib its alright so it is something with the .lib file. Anyone a clue what

could be happening? In an other project I have it works fine so I do not get what's going on here.

Note: This is even before I add some code, just linking the library gives problems.

Look here in this source for add Mfm

can yu attach the whole keygen code with lib?

then i try here...

it's this line i think it's the interresting point:

"H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(1) : error A2008: syntax error : !"

I think the others are followed errors.

"H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(1) : error A2008: syntax error : !"

I dont know what wromh in you code please upload your source for more help or look in this source

You did not even understand what I was saying... The problem is with the lib file, _not_ with my code,

this is what I use in my source file AND in my other project (where it works fine):

    push esi
    INVOKE FindResource, hInstance, IDM_MUSIC, RT_RCDATA
    push eax
    INVOKE SizeofResource, hInstance, eax
    mov nMusicSize, eax
    pop eax
    INVOKE LoadResource, hInstance, eax
    INVOKE LockResource, eax
    mov esi, eax
    mov eax, nMusicSize
    add eax, SIZEOF nMusicSize
    INVOKE GlobalAlloc, GPTR, eax
    mov pMusic, eax
    mov ecx, nMusicSize
    mov dword ptr [eax], ecx
    add eax, SIZEOF nMusicSize
    mov edi, eax
    rep movsb
    pop esi
    INVOKE mfmPlay, pMusic

The code is perfectly fine, the problem is with the .lib file. And your lib file gives the exact same error, and yes it says:

"H:\KEYGEN_BASE\mfmplayer.lib(1) : error A2008: syntax error : !"

This ! is also present in your lib file, if you looked you could have seen it.

Upload your source;)

I have this same error if i use

include mfmplayer.lib

 Assembling: Music.asm
mfmplayer.lib(1) : error A2008: syntax error : !
mfmplayer.lib(2) : error A2044: invalid character in file
mfmplayer.lib(3) : error A2044: invalid character in file
mfmplayer.lib(3) : error A2039: line too long

You must write

include mfmplayer.inc

includelib mfmplayer.lib

And now works this.And i have say look ín this source

Ah right, nice typo of mine there.

Now the other thing is, whenever I do not include the mfmplayer.lib file project is fine now but when I do, user32.lib is not found. Exact error is:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file "\masm32\lib\user32.lib"

Obviously it's there, before I added mfmplayer support the project compiled fine, just without a nice tune. Guess there's some order in which I have to do the includes. Right now I've got it like this:

include windows.inc
include kernel32.inc
include user32.inc
includelib kernel32.lib
includelib user32.libinclude    gdi32.inc
includelib gdi32.libinclude    oleaut32.inc
includelib oleaut32.libinclude mfmplayer.inc
includelib mfmplayer.lib

I've been moving them around in combinations but can't get it right :/

Bit of an odd error, guess it has something to do with mfmplayer but don't really know what.

Double postage, sorry about that.

I found out that the error is caused by:

invoke mfmPlay, pMusic

When I add that line it will give the linking error.

And yes I looked at the sources you guys provided, I was doing the exact same thing. It's just that mfmPlay causes a linking error.. which I really don't understand the cause of.
