Whenever I try to compile something (DLL) in my favorite compiler, Dev-C++, I get errors when I use __asm. Here is the line that gets the errors:

refer to this : http://www.ibiblio.org/gferg/ldp/GCC-Inline-Assembly-HOWTO.html

you basically have a GCC compiler, which the inline assembly syntax differ from Microsoft C++ Compiler.

Yeah, I know. But are you saying that __asm is only for microsofts compiler? Because __asm becomes bolded in Dev-C++...

i have no expperience handling GCC compiler before, I assume you have to do them like this :

Use Visual C++ 2008 from microsoft. Best compiler around I think atm.

I get it... I remember reading about that in my programming book. =)

And I hate microsoft, but sometimes you do need to use their stuff. But I like to go oldschool and not use the drag and drop stuff in microsofts compilers. =) But sometimes it is helpful...

what suits you best chaosis Smile

i'm glad you understood.

plus, usually people uses GNU C Compiler for portability and cross-platform.

Yeah, I use it on kubuntu. And I find the AT&T asm too hard to pick up, I am just going to use VC++ 2005. (They messed up 2008)

Under dev-cpp compiler options, go to "Ad the following commands when calling comiler" and put -masm=intel so you can use intel syntax instead of at&t.
Alos, it's just asm(), not __asm{}.
asm(mov [0x134643], 0x90); might work. for what you have, but there's no point in using ASM for that. (BYTE)*(0x265216) = 0x90.

See, Dev-C++ is outdated, and is buggy, and not as intelligent. Microsoft Visual C++ Express Edition 2008 (yes I used the full name) is up to date, not buggy, intelligent, and has extra features to help you design as well as create your programs. It also has more options.
