Hi everybody!
Like my question most likely reveals I'm very new to assembler.
This code works absolutely fine:
mov ebx, Nr
mov ebx, [ebx*4+55E0B8h]
invoke wsprintf, addr text, CTEXT("Nr: %d"), addr Byte PTR DS: [ebx]
While this displays only nonsense on the screen:
.const
BA dd 55E0B8h
;...
.code
;...
mov ebx, Nr
mov ebx, [ebx*4+BA]
invoke wsprintf, addr text, CTEXT("Nr: %d"), addr Byte PTR DS: [ebx]
So how do I put the adress 55E0B8 into a constant, while it works like i did not?
I tried google and everything, but didn't find help.
I appreciate any help. :)
Hello, GouShou, and welcome at board!!
You don't have to declare BA as a constant. Use an EQU instead:
BA EQU 55E0B8h
mov ebx, Nr
mov ebx, [ebx*4+BA]
.
.
.
This works fine. Take this advice (http://www.masm32.com/board/index.php?topic=144.0) , too, from Donkey!
If you want to use a variable, you can do this:
.DATA
BA dd 55E0B8h
.CODE
mov ebx, Nr
mov eax, BA
mov ebx, [ebx*4+eax]
.
.
.

Works! Thank you a lot. :bg
I take the second version, as recommended. :)
As you wish, but, if you don't need to change the value of BA with some calculation, I would recommend the first choice, because second one needs one more instruction..

Yeah, you are right, I didn't think about that.
So I'll stick to the EQU version. :)
