Yes yes.. I know :bg
As mentioned.. I test concepts in VB before I apply to Asm..
I came across a real funny in VB... Stack overflow??
After a few times i thought that there must be something re-entrant happening... and true's Bob it was.
I usually write VB as I write asm, returning True or False.
With VB the boolean is applied to the FUNCTION name....
..but I made the mistake of applying this to a SUB name, and this made it go 're-entrant' and stack overflow
just off the cuff, any clues... I don't want to go to any VB forums as this is only a test thingy, otherwise I'll just move on..
:8)

we cannot "gleen" the answer without seeing some code :lol
freckled, freckled, drunk....
your code here
...name 3 things that Irish whores have in common
Can you optimize this code for me dedndave?

just kiddin dave...
by god, that looks pretty optimal to me, just the way it is :bg

What could possibly be less natural, if you observe a fish:
1: You write about it
2: You eat it. :lol
first, you alter the fish by merely observing it :bg
that's why everything tastes like chicken
As an assembly programmer, we are trained to think logically and we are trained to eliminate trapholes and flaws. But once in a while, you should consider a joke. :bg

Ask Olly, he usually has an answer :bg
P.S.: When I went to the forum this morning, there were 88 guests and 15 unread posts, virtually all of them related to programming. Until YOU came along with this dirty talk about Irish whores and rotten fish and poetry and the like :naughty:
:bg
What's wrong with Irish whores ? Such a nice girl to be sure to be sure. :P

OK code thingy
ASM
Quote
myProc Proc..
blah blah
blah blah
.
.
Return TRUE ;if OK ( FALSE if NOK)
myProc Endp
VB Function
Quote
Public Function myFunc () as boolean
On Error goto ThisError 'simple error handler
myFunc = TRUE 'The OK signature
Exit Function 'Outa here!
ThisError:
myFunc = FALSE 'NOK indicator
End Function
I made a mistake by doing the same with a Subroutine (SUB)
VB Subroutine
Quote
Public SUB mySub ()
On Error goto ThisError 'simple error handler
mySub = TRUE 'The OK signature - THIS PRODUCES A RE-ENTRANT PROCEDURE
'IT PROBABLY STUFFS UP THE RETURN STACK POINTER
Exit SUB 'Outa here!
ThisError:
mySub = FALSE 'NOK indicator - THIS WILL GET IT OUT OF THE RE-ENTRANT CYCLE
End Sub
Maybe this might effect the Power Basic code
..Ten green bottles standing on the wall.. :wink
maybe it's the ExitSub - not really sure how the VB compiler handles that
try this...
Public SUB mySub ()
On Error goto ThisError 'simple error handler
mySub = TRUE 'The OK signature - THIS PRODUCES A RE-ENTRANT PROCEDURE
'IT PROBABLY STUFFS UP THE RETURN STACK POINTER
Exit SUB 'Outa here!
ThisError:
mySub = FALSE 'NOK indicator - THIS WILL GET IT OUT OF THE RE-ENTRANT CYCLE
Exit SUB 'Outa here!
End Sub
if that doesn't fly
you have GOTO ? :P
I'm not worried about it, but thought I'll mention it as some guys here are mixing basic and asm...
:8)
yah - i think they like to play with PowerBasic, though

It's a little bit tricky to call asm from VB, but it works fine. At least for MS Word VB for apps - can't test it for the "full" VB because I don't have it.
