typedef 30 Jul 2012, 21:36

or if you want to initialize the array with 0 etc.

Code:

var db 500 dup(0)

You can also use times directive:

Code:

var: times 500 db 0

thx @Mac2004 & typedef.

Quote:

how i can use times with structs?
for example:

Code:

struct S
  a db 0
  b db 0
  c db 0
ends
S1 S
S2 S
S3 S

SS: times 50 S
give error

Code:

Error: illegal instruction.

Everything is byte:

Code:

        SS rb 50*sizeof.S

heizzpep,

You can redefine times as macro (it doesn't work in your case because it's assembler directive, and structs are macros indeed).

There was thread about similar problem.

Also, even earlier there already was a question in primary fasm's FAQ about such problem. It really was one of the most frequently asked ones.
