How to convert a minus number to string retaining the format. -SDWORD-
MASM seems to convert it to "DWORD" except for "%echo" :eek

I need "-20.0" and not "4294967276.0" ::)

Code Select


.686p
.model flat, stdcall
option casemap :none

pushf4 MACRO Num:REQ
	push dword ptr 0
    ORG $-4
    REAL4 Num
ENDM

First MACRO Num:REQ
	LOCAL Fl,StrFl
	Fl EQU Num
	%echo @CatStr(<%Fl>)
	StrFl CATSTR %(&Fl),<.0>
	%echo StrFl 
	pushf4 StrFl
ENDM

.code
start:
	int 3
	First -10*2
	fld dword ptr [esp]
end start

I wish I could understand why something works and why not. :red :green
