HOWTO easily use NASM into windows C/C++ applications

After installed NASM and configured our VisualStudio to use it, we are now able to use it in our C/C++ projects. Assembler usually has a huge advantage in terms of performance at the cost of rigid code usage. You cannot use it in both 32-bits and 64-bits versions of the same C/C++ code.  Each version shall fulfill several different ‘environmental’ requirements that cannot be ignored … Continue reading HOWTO easily use NASM into windows C/C++ applications »

HOWTO integrate NASM with VS2019

Occasionally I use assembler to squeeze processing power from my programs. A cheap solution was C inline assembler sections, but VS2019 doesn’t support them into a 64-bits program.  Other compilers use other more or less complex solutions (IBM assembler, …). This forced me to consider having & link .asm files in my projects.  I can split them with 32 and 64 bits code and compile … Continue reading HOWTO integrate NASM with VS2019 »
