Once in a while it surprises me to get to know that someone created something interesting with fasmg, like it was in the case of ez80 includes. But generally speaking, I know very little about any people that actually use fasmg for anything, or even simply play with it. If you are one of them and reading this, I would be happy to know about it. Or perhaps we need a better dedicated place for fasmg-specific topics?

I plan to finish the porting of my 8080 package from fasm 1 to fasmg soon. I wish to combine it with 8048, 8051 and ez80 includes to get more general solid 8-bit package (not absolutely universal though Rolling Eyes

)

I'm going to mention that, with some invaluable help of Tomasz, I have successfully used fasmg to create an EBC (EFI Byte Code) assembler.

For those who don't know, EBC is the instruction set UEFI applications and drivers can use to produce a single binary executable that can run across different architectures (x86_32, x86_64, Arm64 and we're working on adding Arm32). It can be considered as a kind of "Java for UEFI" if you will.

To know more about EBC, please have a look at chapter 21 of the UEFI 2.6 specs.

The project is called fasmg-ebc, and hosted on github.

I tried fasm g a litle bit and I liked it, but I'm too afraid to move to it. Although it has so many cool features that fasm 1 is missing, and I'm always like "fasm g is cool, I should go master it and use it and move my project source to it" but then I like "it's pretty slow. and it's still new. and Tomasz said it's a sorta example engine. what if it becomes abandoned and not maintained at some point, maybe to the favor of fasm2 or something?" and some months have passed already and I still want to switch and still can't decide

fasmg is the engine that was to become the base of fasm 2, so if fasm 2 was ever actually created, it would be mostly compatible with fasmg. However, as vid had once reasonably commented, it is not so certain that fasm 2 is actually needed and wanted, so you should not count on it ever becoming real. Currently I treat fasmg as a supplementary product, it does not seek to completely replace fasm 1 like fasm 2 would (but even fasm 2 might not be successful at this), however it gives us new interesting options. And when you want to implement an instruction set from scratch, fasmg is a much better choice than fasm 1.

I am trying to use fasmg for 51/avr/8086/arm32/win32.However,it seems that arm32 cannot be compiled in fasmg yet.

That's what this thread is about - if someone is working on any new macros, for example ones for an ARM32 architecture, I'd recommend letting others know, so anyone interested would be able to find it and maybe even give some feedback.

There is also another thread where I collect links to known projects / macro packages.
