error in MOV

[lelejau]

I'm trying to do this MOV:

MOV EDX,DWORD PTR SS:[ESP+B8]

But, I'm getting this error:

undefined symbol B8

:( Why is that?

hi,

numeric constants must begin with an numeric digit (0-9). Hexadecimal numbers also requite the 'h' suffix:

MOV EDX,DWORD PTR SS:[ESP+0B8h]

thanks,  :clap:

Code Select Expand

        MOV     EDX,[ESP+0B8h]

dword ptr is not needed, as EDX is a dword sized register
size need not be specified when the destination and/or target is a register, except with MOVZX or MOVSX

SS: segment override is also not needed, as addressing with ESP references the SS selector by default

SS: segment override is also not needed, as addressing with ESP references the SS selector by default

This is also the case for EBP, if used as the base register.

mov edx,[ebx + ebp*1 + 0xB8h] ; would use the DS selector
mov edx,[ebp + ebx*1 + 0xB8h] ; would use the SS selector
