Hi!
is (or will be) possible to receive in listing file the code of macro?
in example:

code of program:

Code:

macro something param
{
mov eax,param
}

something 2
something 4

and then i listing file I wish i could find something like this:

Code:

something 2:
mov eax,2
something 4:
mov eax,4

against to:

Code:

                                                macro something param
                                                {
                                                mov eax,param
                                                }
                                                
00000000: 66 B8 02 00 00 00                     something 2
00000006: 66 B8 04 00 00 00                     something 4

It's currently not possible because listing can only copy the original lines from source - the lines chewed by preprocessor are in the internal format which cannot be exactly converted back to text.

However at least partial conversion of preprocessed source to readable text is possible, and is already done for example by fasmw's error handler. So it might be only a matter of equipping the listing module with such feature.

In short: not possible with currently officially available tools; though may be possible in future.
