16 bit DOS Programming / Unable to transfer to new MASM...

Last post by carlottagp - May 22, 2012, 11:23:48 AM

Hello,

I am unable to get into the new forum.  Ostensibly, this is because my answers to the four
questions are incorrect.  Having tried a number of times, I'm wondering if the "Marilyn Monroes"
question is a tricky one.  I even tried "neither" for the hair colour question, since I've never
heard of Marilyn Monroes.  The next time I attempt this, I will enter "4" for the horse question,
rather than "four".

Please advise.

Michael

   there's a problem in dwSize. wrong size but also it works with masm10 but not masm11. I've seen some strange things happening with structures in masm version 11. Does anyone know how to fix it?

One can be re-assigned and the other can not, is my understanding.

=, equ and textequ can be re-assigned
What can not be re-assigned is an integer defined with equ or textequ.

it just makes sense, is all
EQU is a fixed value - in older versions of MASM, it always resolved to a 16-bit numeric constant
then, they added the TEXTEQU functionality to use strings, and to be "re-usable"
other than the 4 letters, i don't think there is any difference between EQU with a text operand and TEXTEQU

One can be re-assigned and the other can not, is my understanding.

Does Microsoft offer CD-ROM versions of their "setup" software for installing an operating system on a new hard drive? I know they have these for floppy disk installation ( http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=9880 ) but no one sells those anymore! Thanks for any information!

If you have a valid COA, You can order media from M$.

There are ISO images available to burn and they do boot too.

I'm starting to look at building up the line number info necessary for debug mode output. As yet I'm not sure what COFF etc requires for this, I'm assuming it needs a line number+address reference for every instruction? As well as line number for symbol definitions (which is already stored in the symbol table). Any thoughts?
The one thing I do want to fix here over ML is that the line number in source of the actual MACRO must be stored (as this annoys me currently) when debugging you can't really step into a macro and there's no reason why not.. it should be much like a proc.

You probably saw the mapinfo:lines thread.

Good luck for your project :thumbu
