Good afternoon, I badly know English, Sad but I had a problem.

How I can include resource in my program? For example I know how include version and dialog resource. As I can add bitmap, strings, xml-theme and raw data resource to my program? In fasm.pdf I have not found this theme.

Sorry if the similar theme already met at a forum.
Thanks. Smile

If you have compiled RES-file you can include one to your EXE-file like this:

Code:
section '.rsrc' resource from 'you_res_file_name' readable

In section 3.1.6 of FASM.PDF you can find the samples of including bitmap and a raw resource on the example of XML manifest. You read the same section online, too.

Thanks, but I now tihs metohd. Me interests how to include string resource, and bitmap resource in my EXE file, What for this purpose exist macros on FASM. That is how it is possible to include any resources in an EXE-file using only opportunities FASM? Still there is a problem when I include icon in an EXE-file thats link only first image on my icon (icon has 16x16, 32x32 and 48x48 formats it's one file).

Code:
section '.rsrc' resource data readable

  directory RT_GROUP_ICON,group_icons,\
               RT_ICON,icons,\

  resource group_icons,\
           IDI_MAIN,LANG_NEUTRAL,main_icon

  resource icons,\
           1,LANG_NEUTRAL,main_icon_data

  icon main_icon,main_icon_data,'resource\mainicon.ico'
    


Compiller say "No errors", but it's code link only first image on icons. Explain it restrictions of macros or I incorrectly do something.

Thanks.

Yes, the "icon" macro includes only the first image from .ICO file, if you want multiple images in one icon resource, you have to use separate .ICO files for each one.

I have had this problem too, a little modification of icon macro allows you to extract every icon from multi icon file. To found out how many icons in the file, check 3rd word in this file.
Example:
Code:
format PE

include 'win32w.inc'

section '.res' resource

macro multi_icon group,[label,icon_file,num]
 { common local count
    count = 0
   forward local data,size,position
    label dd RVA data,size,0,0
    virtual at 0
     file icon_file:6+(num*16),16
     load size dword from 8
     load position dword from 12
    end virtual
    data file icon_file:position,size
    count = count+1
   common local header
    align 4
    group dd RVA header,6+count*14,0,0
    header dw 0,1,count
   forward
    file icon_file:6+(num*16),12
    dw label#.resid
   common
    align 4 }

  directory RT_ICON, icons,\
            RT_GROUP_ICON, group_icons

  resource icons,\
           1, LANG_NEUTRAL, icon_data1,\
           2, LANG_NEUTRAL, icon_data2,\
           3, LANG_NEUTRAL, icon_data3

  resource group_icons,\
           10, LANG_NEUTRAL, main_icon

  multi_icon main_icon,\
           icon_data1, 'ico103.ico', 0,\
           icon_data2, 'ico103.ico', 1,\
           icon_data3, 'ico103.ico', 2
