Awesome... yes, I'm running Vista x64, and I plugged my G-Pen 450 in semi-permanently last week also.
Yes, the fixed version of fasmw.exe works with no caret and no lock up . I'm not sure how bug reports go, but you can add another user to the list who can confirm the bug exists, the circumstances are Vista and Tablet input devices. Quite possibly it's related to the IME Alternate Input method that Vista allows. You know how any text entry control on any device can be controlled via the handwriting recognition tool? It sits docked at the side, but you can pull it out and scribble something in, and it will "type it" in the active control under the handwriting box... rather like a virtual keyboard... but for a pen. I do actually use it a fair bit, for IMs and email and stuff, though I got the tablet for drawing and graphic design that goes into my programs. XD So, if I can just get a caret back... all will be shiny. I found the source to FASMW... I'll see if I can reproduce the patch. If I can, and can then re-implement the "caret" can I submit a "bugfix" for official consideration? How would I do that? --- EDIT --- See attached include. I just commented out the line that hides the caret, as well as one of the ones that shows it. Now I can see caret, and FASMW doesn't lock up. I'm sure that just blindly removing a couple of commands is not the best fix, but it does the job... if anyone on the FASM team knows how to better place them so they shouldn't cause this lock up, but still allow normal operation with a tablet attached, I'm happy to try out your fix... for now, here is mine, and it seems sufficient.

Although this thread is kind of torn between the Compiler Internals and the Windows topics. I am inclined to move it to Internals, so if you can't find it here, look in there. |

I have found a solution and attached it to my last post. -.-

I have moved to Compiler Internals and made it sticky. Hopefully Tomasz can take a look sometime later.

revolution: you did not pay enough attention. The thread you are referring to was resolved with releasing a patch that fixed the problem. If you look into the current FASMW sources, they do not contain the lines that bobsobol commented out - he is using some older sources and the patched ASMEDIT.INC posted here is based on an old version (probably 1.68 package), from before that fix.

Well, this reminds me I planned to do this - it's time to finally drop 1.68 from the Download page.

It won't be 1.70 until I finish AVX support. But till then 1.69.14 is going the be a "temporary stable" release, as I stated in that other thread.

You're right... I'm using what was posted as the current stable... I'm too new to FASM to risk bumping in to Beta issues with the assembler, I would usually assume it was my fault. XD
So I should probably get 1.69.14 for a proper fix? (not my shabby hack XD) |
