Hi All,
Can anyone explain to me howto divide by 2??, im having serious frustration getting it to work.
My goal is to divide an Allocation Granularity thats used for ViewMapOfFile. Initially, dwAllocAlign is 64k, the Mapfile doesnt appear to work if the remaining MAP is less than 64k, when i detect a 0 pointer return, i want to divide dwAllocAlign by 2 and then repeat the process until dwAllocAlign is 0.
The DIV instruction is just confusing me, and i cant find a good example of it?
Thanks
Paul
Hello,
shr eax,1 ;divide by 2 without remainder
shr eax,2 ;// 4 // 2*2*....
DIV use edx and eax as operand
use source (register) as divider
result is in eax with remainder in edx
sample:
mov edx,0
mov eax,13
mov ecx,2
div ecx
----------------------------------
remainder in edx,1
eax = 6
---------------------------------
2*6+1=13
hi mate, thanks for that, that helps greatly.
