SYMPTOMS
When you attempt to assemble the sample code below, the Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) fails and reports the following error for the two lines with "mov" instructions:
RESOLUTION
To work around the problem, do one of the following,
- Simplify the expression. If you uncomment the lines in the sample code, and delete the original instructions, the code will assemble without errors. -or-
- Assemble with the /Zm option (or run MASM.EXE instead of ML.EXE). -or-
- Use the OPTION OLDSTRUCTS directive to have the assembler treat structure members the same as in MASM 5.1.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in MASM versions 6.0x, 6.1, 6.1a, and 6.11. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
Sample Code
; Assemble options needed: none .MODEL small STEST STRUCT f1 BYTE ? f2 BYTE ? STEST ENDS .CODE mov al, SIZEOF STEST.f1 + SIZEOF STEST.f2 mov al, LENGTHOF STEST.f1 + LENGTHOF STEST.f2 ; ; Uncomment the lines below and delete the two lines above to avoid ; the A2006 error ; ; temp = SIZEOF STEST.f1 ; mov al, temp + SIZEOF STEST.f2 ; temp = LENGTHOF STEST.f1 ; mov al, temp + LENGTHOF STEST.f2 END
