                  Tell me, was subj, I mean linking .res file to exe was already solved? How do you do it?

                  Only compile .asm to .obj (format COFF) and then use external linker like ALink...

Previously I used brc32.exe from TASM to bind resources, but suddenly FASM applications made in such way begin to tell "Application coudn't properly initialize itself (0x00000005)". Now I search what could be a problem or another way to add .res files. But using MS COFF is not good as well as using internal macros.  |

                  in my guess, Alink is written in C.
 
                  
                but, to survive fasm, all is must be written in fasm. purity, unified systemmatic.  |

                  After you reminded it, I'm considering adding a feature of including .res files in the PE formatter. It would be just a syntax extension to current "data resource" of "section resource", something like "data resource from 'test.res'".

                  Amigos,
 
                  You can use Fasm with: -MS Link -GoLink -Alink -Digital Mars Linker with the help of DM Coff2omf tool Theorically,you must be able to use Fasm with tlink32;but you need to covert the COFF obj. code to OMF. _________________ Code it... That's all...  |

It will be really cool and will support one of the best FASM conceptions - no need for external linker.  |

                  Hm, what you think about writing some visual resource editor (With FASM of course

                  JohnFound,
 
                  That's a nice idea.Also,one can think about coding a tool which can translate ready resource scripts to Fasm-style resource sections based on macros. _________________ Code it... That's all...  |

                  Hi Vortex.
 
                  
                Yes the convertor for .RES files is another solving of the problem. But why to make it easy, when I can make it complex? Actually I think it must be separate editor, because the next step will be to build it into FASMW together with Project manager and some other visual tools and code generating wizards.  |

                  Hi JohnFound,
 
                  Yes,you are right about building the resource editor to FASMW. I see you have a good understanding about FASM internals. _________________ Code it... That's all...  |

                  If Privalov implement those option about including .res files it will improve situation greatly
