Hi all!
Please tell me, is there any opportunity to define string from equ in FASM? Or the same with another equ or define.
For example:

Code:

 A equ 1-1-1-1

 str db A,0 ; <- can't use "" here, as in another 'equ' too
 ; with another equ i maen the following:
 ; B equ '1-1-1-1' but with earlier defined A

Thanks and regards.

Something like:

Code:

macro dbsymb c { match value,c \{ irps symb,value \\{ db \\`symb \\} \} }

dbsymb 1-1-1-1

would work. However it just converts the symbols to text, and remember that whitespace from between the symbol doesn't count. Thus

Code:

dbsymb 1 -1  -    1-  1

would do exactly the same.

Hey,
I didn't understand the question neither the answer - could one of you explain to me what just happened here Neutral

Where do you use this kind of construct (1-1-1-1)?

Hi Madis731!

It is an abstract example based on UUID form like

11111111-2222-3333-4444-555555555555
And i just wanted to get binary data defined and string to register COM server in registry. That's why i needed such kind of macro.
Now it is implemented and works fine.
Regards.
