In first pass "VERSION" constant gets defined after it was referenced, so fasm needs to do the next pass, and this time "defined VERSION" is predicted to be true and "VERSION" doesn't get defined and one more pass is needed and so on.

The correct variant should be:

Code:

if ~ defined VERSION | defined VERSION_DEFINED_HERE
 VERSION = 0x400
 VERSION_DEFINED_HERE = 1
end if

Thanks, it was so quickly.

I was wrote on masm more than 5 years, and 3 weeks ago i was try to use fasm.
Now i rewrite my masm macroses on fasm. Fasm - very good thing, and i'm glad to see that.

Thanks.
