Hie all. I was wondering if there is a way i can embed an mp3 file into my FASM program's resource section. Or is there and ID for such files..like RT_WAV etc ?

thanks

it's can be RT_RCDATA for use it, you can FindResource then LoadResource ..etc..

Or just:

Code:

; Part of your code where you hold data
the_mp3_file: file 'TheFile.mp3'

Don't know if there is an advantage with RT_RCDATA if you don't have separate versions per language (maybe the resource does not occupy memory while it is not loaded?).

It is loaded already, doing "mov eax, [the_mp3_file]" will make EAX == <"ID3", 3> (or whatever the file signature is). Think of it as a byte array already pre-initialized with the file contents.

[edit]BTW, perhaps you'll need to know the size so use this instead:

Code:

; Part of your code where you hold data
the_mp3_file: file 'TheFile.mp3'
sizeof.the_mp3_file = $ - the_mp3_file ; Now you can know the size of this "byte array" with "sizeof.the_mp3_file"
