Hi,Johnfound:
unfortunately, The behaivour on win2003 is same as prior version, the result file is a 0 size com file. And I test win2k server, It compliered simple.asm to simple.exe, but the size of simple.exe is 512 bytes, It only builded the mz header. I used the fasm.exe for compling the simple.asm, the result file size is 3072 bytes.
Why doesn't support a menu item for directing invoked fasm.exe to complie asm file? I think that it should be a optional function for fresh. Do you think it?
Thank you helpping.

Still get a null sized com file (in 2k).

Any ideas to where the problem is?

Weird, on my win2k, fresh is shows that my code is compiled but there is no exe produced. Also my attempts to compile the example code produced a 0byte size com file. Something must be wrong. Let me try debugging it.

I think that the problem is in virtfiles.asm. LocalReAlloc some times returns NULL, but I don't know why.

hmm LocalReAlloc returns the correct value for me, but it is the LocalLock that fails with the error :

ERROR_DISCARDED
The segment is already discarded and cannot be locked.

Anyway I was pretty shocked when I heard that you used Local Functions. I think it would be much better if you had used Heap stuffs, as so claimed f0dder. Let me test some codes.

Try one of these flags:

Quote:
LMEM_NOCOMPACT
Does not compact or discard memory to satisfy the allocation request.
LMEM_NODISCARD
Does not discard memory to satisfy the allocation request.

hmmm, John, it seems that you should look carefully at source editor code. Something is wrong with that. See:
I'm working on searching in many source files, and displaying results in a window. I need to 'ask' hEditorTab for the name of each tab, like:
Code:
        xor     esi,esi
        lea     edi,[.tci]
     .load_file:
        push    ecx
        invoke  SendMessage, [hEditorTab], TCM_GETITEM, esi, edi
        pop     ecx
        mov     eax,[.tci.hdr.pszText]    

(it's a part of a loop, that's why it looks like this)
after this eax contains garbage. When I do
mov eax,[.tci.hFileName]
It sometimes returns real file name, and sometimes - garbage...
Furthermore, I can't create new source now - it worked before, now it doesn't... even when I downloaded a new version. It seems that asmedit is created (it shows and disappears quickly), but no new tab is created (so I can't acces new source). I can't find the reason... And I wonder why it was OK before...

Reading up on msdn, it was stated that Local and Global Functions are slower than other memory managment functions, and it was suggested that Heap* stuffs are used. Perhaps JohnFound should replace those code, or I must go changing the internals of the fresh. hehe.

Hi all.
I come to the same opinion, that the "Local" functions are garbage. So I rewrite 'virtfiles.asm' to use heap functions instead. The file in the begining of the thread is updated. Please, check it now.

I will check this and I think to introduce new message: SEM_GETFILENAME to return handle of the filename by index.

I made, when you create/open new source file, and if the last one is empty and named "untitled.asm" and is only file in the editor, it is destroyed. FASMW works this way for example. Are you talking about this? Or there is some another bug?

Yeah, it wasn't a bug. I realized that before I was typing something in the editor, and then created new tab (so the first one wasn't destroyed). But FASMW destroys first editor only when you open some file, not when you create new one, so you can have eg. you can have 5 untitled empty files. But now it's not as important as another bugs...

In my case it won't help because I need more information about the tab (ie handle of AsmEdit), so I will still have to use TCM_GETITEM.

Hi,Johnfound:

Probably there are some memory leaks. Today I will try to clean up the whole project. Please send me, what error message appear on quit.

Regards.

john, all i saw in this treath recalls me the problem i had in the first years of SpAsm developement... that only ended the day i wrote a complete memory manager. You might take a look at the [Mem] Title in RosAsm Sources....

(VirtualAlloc is the evident way to go, for a Project like Fresh...).

Compiles ok for me too now (plus that I see the splitter and the window beneath it now, the icons are ok).
