JWASM and MASM32 headers compatiblity?

[Andre Tampubolon]

Here's a code taken from the MASM32 forum:

.386
.model flat,stdcall

include \masm32\include\kernel32.inc
include \masm32\include\masm32.inc

includelib \masm32\lib\kernel32.lib
includelib \masm32\lib\masm32.lib

.data
s db "Test",0

.code
start:
lea eax,s
push eax
call StdOut
ret
end start

This is the command I used:
jwasm -IC:\masm32\include -c -coff code.asm

JWASM 1.95 failed to assemble it:
\masm32\include\masm32.inc(402): Error! E167: Symbol is already defined: RUN_SYN
CH_PROCESS_EX
\masm32\include\masm32.inc(402): Included by
  astro.asm(5): Main line code
astro.asm: 19 lines, 1 passes, 71 ms, 0 warnings, 1 errors

Works perfectly on ML v6.14, though.

Might be interesting what arguments you used with Masm. Perhaps you used -Cx or -Cp? Because the symbol mentioned in the error message is defined twice in Masm32, first as a structure (RUN_SYNCH_PROCESS_EX ), and second as a prototype (run_synch_process_ex). Since your sample doesn't include a "OPTION CASEMAP:NONE" line, Masm and JWasm will convert all symbols to upper case if neither -Cx nor -Cp is given.

This is the argument I used in MASM32:
ml.exe /I C:\masm32\include /c /coff /Cp code.asm

So you'll have to give JWasm the /Cp as well.

Yes, using -cp, the code compiled well.
Thanks for the hint.
