is it possible to copy the content of a label to an other label in a future fasm reliese?


this will be a VERY usefull feature.

Tomasz, please forgive me for my many boring requests.
but FASM is my favourite meta program.
i use it 12 hours/day everydays.

your last realese, fasm 1.67.24 is buggy
it doesn't report the right missing label

you mean something like this?

no, just a copy of the effective content of a byte/word/dword to an other location. during compile

like an equate "byte" that can be used during execution, and not only at compilation time

2 "administrative" things first:

1. First ask IF feature is present before filing feature request
2. Use meaningful names for threads, "another request" can be anything.

As for copying byte at compile time, it is something like this: (not sure, i didn't use "load" for some time, check manual)

note that it only works within same address space ("org", "virtual", etc..)

ok, but all i want is to bring the possibility to make this in fact:


the dword at label0 will simply become 3020100h, it looks like the previous request, some global transparent compile addressing modes.

this would allow lots of funny cases, like this:

anyway, it is on tomasz to explain if / why not is this possible to do.

normally, this must report as an error.

fasmw 2.0 ;not only for ms windows
error: infinite loop reference

label0 dd [label0]
