Following is somewhat-advanced example of mixing assembly and C. It uses MS Visual C, but it may apply to other C compilers.

Only thing i am not sure about with other compilers is "__stdcall" declaration modifier. Someone could make gcc example of this and post it.

It's hard to separate printed value in asm from printed values in C...
And the code is so hard to follow... how can you work with 2 languages at the same time?? Have you two cars or have you two bycicles or something like that... it's amazing!!

i understand it's little complicated. that's why i wrote "somewhat-advanced". For example some strings are defined in ASM code, passed to C function as argument, and printed from C functions. So string defined in ASM code gets printed by C code.

I just wanted to show all cases. There could be also simpler example, like just using asm procedure in C, or C procedure in ASM. This shows "everything"


because both languages compile to same thing - x86 machine code. So these languages are just different ways to write down thing.

Once I tried something with a strange name "thunk" was the name, IT WAS A CALL between 16bitDLL and 32 bit program, and between 32bitDLL and 16 bit program,...

You can't imagine how stupid I WAS trying some trick that is so rarely used, and now, I still have my 16<==>32 try in mind, HALF-WORKING, and I can hardly look at your trick "messing" two different kind of codes,...

It's incredible that 10 years later I am still stuck with this old stuff I tried... ISWEAR I was about to learn quickly your trick just above, and then all I was reading about your stuff was VANISHING step after step, and the "memory" (souvenir in French) of my old "half working" work was disturbing my reading of your recent trick,... I think I need another life, because may be I will be never able to understand clearly your new trick just above,..

It's so hard to be "mentally" stuck with some old trick really hard and looking like your trick just above!!.
