MASM32 fatal error A1016

[Broken Sword]

Hi guys. Look at this:

ml /c /coff /Cp Test.asm

MASM : fatal error A1016: Internal error

  Version 8.00.40426.16

  ExceptionCode            = C0000005
  ExceptionFlags           = 00000000
  ExceptionAddress         = 0041AE27 (00400000) "C:\masm32\bin\ml.exe"
  NumberParameters         = 00000002
  ExceptionInformation[ 0] = 00000000
  ExceptionInformation[ 1] = 0000001D

CONTEXT:
  Eax    = 00001880  Esp    = 0012F910
  Ebx    = 00463EA3  Ebp    = 00001000
  Ecx    = 00313C2C  Esi    = 00313C78
  Edx    = 00000000  Edi    = 00000000
  Eip    = 0041AE27  EFlags = 00010246
  SegCs  = 0000001B  SegDs  = 00000023
  SegSs  = 00000023  SegEs  = 00000023
  SegFs  = 00000038  SegGs  = 00000000
  Dr0    = 00000000  Dr3    = 00000000
  Dr1    = 00000000  Dr6    = 00000000
  Dr2    = 00000000  Dr7    = 00000000

It fails on constuctions like:
assume ebx:PTR MSG
mov EDI, offset [EBX].message

While constuctions like:
assume ebx:PTR MSG
invoke      ProcName, addr [EBX].message, ...
works fine.

Is there nice alternative ways for failed case?

Yes,

Use a version of ML that is not in beta. 7.10, 7.00, 6.15 or 6.14 if you don't need SSE2 support.

I am m9ving this post to the Workshop as te MASM32 subforum is for project related questions.

PS : Welcome on board.  :U

Should it be...?

Code Select Expand

assume ebx:PTR MSG
lea EDI, [EBX].message

Thanks, hutch and Tedd...
lea works fine  :U
