Hi to All!

may be it's "old" question, but I've not found the answer.

So, i have *.lib (this *.lib makes in MASM), may i use this lib in FASM and call procedures from *.lib directly ?

thnks a lot!

you must create MS COFF file in FASM, and then link it with your library.

Code:
fasm test.asm test.obj
link /subsystem:console test.obj mylib.lib

you don't need sources to .lib, you need just .lib file itself. Then you can use it in FASM by producing MS COFF file and linking it. For more details, tell us what the lib file is, or at least name on function it contains.

Because sources not very big - I'll try transate sources in to FASM and create .dll as usually. Smile

what sources? If you mean sources of .lib, you DON'T need to translate these.
