Feature Suggestions

Hmm that's odd, Ollydbg (http://home.t-online.de/home/Ollydbg/) always opens up blank for me. Maybe I have too long a path.

I'll have a look Mark (maybe the path needs to be shorted).

A little bug doesn't pass the file to be debugged to Ollydbg. It will be fixed for next versions of Easy Code.

Thank you,

Accessing the LPT/COM ports in NT/2K/XP is currently very difficult, requiring a third-party .sys driver or service. The MASM32 installation doesn't seem to have any I/O libraries either. Any chance EasyCode could implement something simple that works on XP also? :)

Attached are three "NT/2k/XP IO drivers" I found while searching the net. None are for MASM. Perhaps they might be helpful.

Mark

Hi Mark,

I'll study your suggestion and attached code.

Thank you,

On a smaller note, any chance for a Visual Basic like opening screen, where in addition to showing new project types, it also lets you open projects, and shows recent projects?

[Ramon Sala]

Okay, I'll see what I can do.

Ok, I noticed hat Easy Code uses UPX to auto compress it's files. But, if you're like me, I like to also use upx's other command line options. So I was wondering, can you implement something in the options dialog that allows you to edit what command lines that will be executed with the upx packer? Or an option to turn off upx, so people can just upx their files manually? Thanks. I'm new and am switching from Delphi to ASM, I like your IDE very much ;)

Hi Hades,

In the Project->Properties, there is a check box named Compress the executable file (only Release mode), which can only be checked/unchecked when compiling in Release mode. Just uncheck it and there will be no UPX compression. About editting options for UPX, I'll see what I can do.
