I create Fasm macro fill.

Code:

fb_infor it is struct.
Fill fb_infor,.sType = VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_FRAMEBUFFER_CREATE_INFO,\
                      .pNext = NULL,\
                      .renderPass = 0,\
                      .attachmentCount = 2,\
                      .pAttachments = attachments0,\
                      .width = 12,\
                      .height = 12,\
                      .layers = 1

But how do without ,\
Like this in Fasm ?

Code:

Fill fb_infor,.sType = VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_FRAMEBUFFER_CREATE_INFO,
                      .pNext = NULL,
                      .renderPass = 0,
                      .attachmentCount = 2,
                      .pAttachments = attachments0,
                      .width = 12,
                      .height = 12,
                      .layers = 1

It may not be possible with fasm 1 macros, but with the fasm g engine you could do something like this:

Code:

macro __fill sname,arg&
        irp definition, arg
                match name==value, definition
                        display `sname,`name,' filled with value ',`value,13,10
                        ; store value at sname#name
                else
                        display 'invalid syntax: ',`definition,13,10
                end match
        end irp
end macro

macro Fill sname,first&
        macro ? line&
                match single=, ,line
                        __fill sname,single
                else
                        __fill sname,line
                        purge ?
                end match
        end macro
        first
end macro



Fill fb_infor,.sType = VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_FRAMEBUFFER_CREATE_INFO,
                      .pNext = NULL, 
                      .renderPass = 0, 
                      .attachmentCount = 2, 
                      .pAttachments = attachments0, 
                      .width = 12, 
                      .height = 12, 
                      .layers = 1

It is possible, but not nice. I guess the following syntax for structure definition would be well perceived:

Code:

Fill fb_infor :
   sType = VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_FRAMEBUFFER_CREATE_INFO
   pNext = NULL
   ;...
ends fb_infor

This is also possible with fasm 1, but it may further simplify and robustify implementation if every line in the structure definition required to specify a keyword at the beginning like item .

P.S. I actually missed that Fill is a macro, and not a structure identifier, and fb_infor is a structure identifier, and not a structure type identifier. In any case implementing the fill in fasm 1 would require to go into the internals of the struct macro. In the requested syntax it would be enough (but again, not nice) to enumerate the list fields@VkFramebufferCreateInfo and to redefine the field names with macros, but the name VkFramebufferCreateInfo should then be made exposed by the struct macros.
