the gcc toolchain distributed by Equation Solutions is for the most part statically linked, so I thought what would happen if I added clang ? so I chose the llvm toolchain by https://github.com/mstorsjo/llvm-mingw/releases as in my previous experiment I added clang.exe and try to compile, it gave th...

you can access named variables in asm att but not in asm att with intel syntax here's the quadraticRoot function using named variables, the variables get ucased and a $1 is appended to the right, if you are new to this and you want to tinker with inline att asm then the following example may serve a...

here's an example that uses ".intel_syntax noprefix" you can use Intel syntax asm when compiling with -asm att but accessing variables by name is problematic #cmdline "-w all -arch native -asm att -gen clang -Wc -O2" #ifdef __FB_WIN32__ #ifdef __FB_64BIT__ function iPower naked (...

just a couple of samples sample1 'I forgot when I wrote this and how it works #cmdline "-w all -arch native -asm att -gen clang -Wc -O2" #ifdef __FB_WIN32__ #ifdef __FB_64BIT__ type bar as double d as long l as longint ld as zstring*19 sz end type function foo naked () as bar asm "fld...

deltarho[1859] from what I have seen, using clang with FB doesn't work with intel asm, don't know the details as to why. I will try some inline att asm and see what happens. <edit> all seems to work ok with att inline asm, I tested with one file containing hundreds of lines of inline asm in att syntax

the following gives asm errors if compiled without -asm att the problem is with i=int(pi)

you can get it from https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code ... h6yXwC0uu7
the toolchain is from https://winlibs.com/ GCC 13.2.0 (with POSIX threads) + LLVM/Clang/LLD/LLDB 18.1.1 + MinGW-w64 11.0.1 (MSVCRT) - release 6 (LATEST)

the following program compiles ok in 32-bit without -asm att the matrix multiplication is from the Rosetta code, but the demo is mine, it shows how drastically the precision is lost type Matrix dim as double m( any , any ) declare constructor ( ) declare constructor ( byval x as uinteger , byval y a...

in 32-bit with -gen clang the following will give the error error: unsupported relocation type push offset L_.str compiles ok if you use -asm att
but in my larger test program there were many asm errors not related to strings

about the -asm att option, I tried other small programs and they compile ok without that option, it's a mystery why that option is required for this particular program, there are no inline asm statements used

out of curiosity I tried compiling with -gen clang, other than -gen clang no other options are needed for 64-bit but for 32-bit you must also use -asm att I wanted my FB package to only have the needed extra files for clang, so I set geany to compile for 64-bit with -gen clang, and after adding clan...

the FreeBASIC translation of the Julia code is wrong https://rosettacode.org/wiki/CORDIC#FreeBASIC in Julia the variable v looks like a vector, v = [1, 0] # start with 2-vector cosine and sine of zero and in the call to the cordic function cosθ, sinθ = cordic(θr) cosθ and sinθ should have the respec...

on MacOS it's a standard feature to be able to preview all kinds of files by simply selecting the file and then pressing the space bar, but it's not a standard feature on Windows, but today I found a program that does just that, QuickLook. after launching QuickLook it keeps running in the background...

you need to use parenthesis

fxm, I think that it would be good to have it in the manual, this thread may get buried and hard to find
