#14 @Proc text equate

[Anonymous]

"@Proc" (or similar name) text equate to be used in debugging/debug builds.

Like for instance:
%invoke _assert,T(exptxt),T("@FileCur"),@Line,T(@ProcName)

I know this can be emulated by replacing prologue macro but having a builtin equate would be nice and it wouldn't break "release" code ML compatibility.

if it was a bit unclear i was thinking of c/c++ __func__ equivalent;
to be set inside proc -- endp block

IIRC I did introduce the OPTION RENAMEKEYWORD for such intentions.

This is an example how a @ProcName equate will "automatically" contain the name of the current proc:

[code]
.386
.model flat, stdcall

option renamekeyword:<proc>,_proc
option renamekeyword:<endp>,_endp

proc macro name:label, args:vararg
@ProcName equ <name>
name _proc args
endm

endp macro name:label
name _endp
@ProcName equ <>
endm

.code

firstproc proc
% echo current proc is @ProcName
ret
firstproc endp

secondproc proc
% echo current proc is @ProcName
ret
secondproc endp

end
[/code]

Nice example for the new renamekeyword option!

But using custom prologue macro in this case would be cleaner since nested macros can cause problems.
this will fail:
main proc C <FORCEFRAME> uses esi edi ebx, argc:dword, argv:ptr dword
%echo current proc is @ProcName
ret
main endp

it's not a problem really, as i said i can work it out with prologue macro what i was hoping for was simplification with built in equate same as C99's __func__.
