I am sorry to bother you folks with my problem. That said I am trying to figure out in THUMB2 code how to take MSW LSW 64 bit double word ( say in r1 and r2 ) value that could be signed or not and convert the whole shebang to a double number two's complement of the original value.

Baring puppy love in code an explanation of the logic would be fine...

Thanks, Clyde

The most common way to do extended two's complement is negate and add 1:

Code:

mvn  r1,r1
mvn  r2,r2
adds r1,r1,1
adc  r2,r2,0

Thank Revolution. I still haven't forgotten your challenge of x86 translation but I am not up to te task yet!
