c++ - Inline Assembly and class members

↑ ↓ ← Rob Yull <Rob_member pathlink.com> writes:
Working on a Mutex class.  I have the following code which compiles successfully
in Visual Studio 2005

__asm	mov ebx, [this];
__asm	mov eax, ebx;
__asm	add eax, [m_intLocked];
__asm	LockTest:
__asm	bts dword ptr [eax], 0;
__asm	jc	LockTest;
__asm	mov eax, intProcessID;
__asm	mov eax, [eax]
__asm	mov [ebx][m_intProcessID], eax;

The class that the this pointer refers too has 2 unsigned int member variables,
m_intLocked & m_intProcessID.  I tried just changing the Microsoft specific
__asm keyword to the asm used by Digital Mars.  When I try to compile I get the
following errors:

}
^
./Threads/Multi/Mutex/Policies/PMutex_x86.h(103) : Error: undefined label
'm_intLocked'
--- errorlevel 1

If I comment out that line it then falls to error on the m_intProcessID line.  I
also tried

add eax, m_intLocked[ebx];

but got the same thing.

What is the proper way to access these class member variables in Digital Mars?
And more specifically how to read their memory addresses?

I don't know much about assembly, but this seems to work as expected: #include <iostream> class X { public: void F(int Val); int MyInt; }; void X::F(int Val) { asm { mov ecx, [this] mov eax, Val mov [ecx].MyInt, eax } } int main() { X MyX; MyX.F(12); std::cout << MyX.MyInt << std::endl; MyX.F(1212); std::cout << MyX.MyInt << std::endl; } Also read: http://www.digitalmars.com/ctg/ctgInlineAsm.html -- Absolutely not the best homepage on the net: http://home20.inet.tele.dk/midgaard But it's mine - Bertel

I don't know much about assembly, but this seems to work as expected:

[Snip] But watch out, this compiles/assebles as well. It only work by incident: #include <iostream> class X { public: void F1(int Val); void F2(int Val); int MyInt1; int MyInt2; }; class Y { public: void F1(int Val); void F2(int Val); int MyInt3; int MyInt4; }; void X::F1(int Val) { asm { mov ecx, [this] mov eax, Val mov [ecx].MyInt3, eax // Note MyInt3 is not a member of X } } void X::F2(int Val) { asm { mov ecx, [this] mov eax, Val mov [ecx].MyInt2, eax } } int main() { X MyX; MyX.F1(12); std::cout << MyX.MyInt1 << std::endl; MyX.F1(1212); std::cout << MyX.MyInt1 << std::endl; MyX.F2(123); std::cout << MyX.MyInt2 << std::endl; MyX.F2(123123); std::cout << MyX.MyInt2 << std::endl; } -- Absolutely not the best homepage on the net: http://home20.inet.tele.dk/midgaard But it's mine - Bertel

More answering myself, You could make a habit of using the full name: mov [ecx] X.MyInt3, eax // Note MyInt3 is not a member of X Then the compiler will tell you: ff.cpp(26) : Error: 'MyInt3' is not a member of struct 'X' That will also solve the problem with multible class's having the same member, which might result in the error: ff.cpp(27) : Error: 'MyInt1' is a member of 'Y' and 'X' -- Absolutely not the best homepage on the net: http://home20.inet.tele.dk/midgaard But it's mine - Bertel
