Hi all. I'm new to the fasm world. There is a table in the documentation that describes the types of data you can use:


Table 1 Data directives

Unit (bytes) Generate data Reserve data
1 db, file rb
2 dw rw
4 dd rd
6 dp rp
8 dq rq
10 dt rt
16 ddq rdq
32 dqq rqq
64 ddqq rdqq
* emit

When defining data from db to dq the compilation is successful.

But the compiler generates an error when defining data from dt to emit:

emit 2: 0,1000,2000 ; generate three 16-bit values

processed: emit 2: 0,1000,2000
error: illegal instruction.

Why is this happening and how do I define these data types dt, ddq, dqq, ddqq, emit?

fasm doesn't have emit

Perhaps you are reading the fasmg documentation?

maybe it can be more convenient to make this

for multibytes datas over ten.



or maybe, to don't conflict with future registers


or anything else than ddqq
