Need ASM to make BF compiler...

[bernt]

Try this:

GoRC /o icon.rc
tcc -c -o helloworld.o helloworld.c
tcc -o helloworld icon.o helloworld.o

EDIT: It looks like you tried linking with the output from something like

tcc helloworld.c

which would be an executable instead of an .o object file. You might also try doing 'tcc -c helloworld.c' and then linking with the the go linker like 'golink helloworld.o icon.obj'.

ANOTHER EDIT: Isn't C just awesomely fun?

i'll try that.
thanks

umh... it's still producing garbade exe files. look:

OK, terribly sorry. Put helloworld.o last in the list of objects for golink, ie,

golink icon.obj helloworld.o

I haven't manually linked resource files for a long time (MSVC handles this automatically) but the order apparently matters when linking.

By the way I downloaded your program and it's wonderful, but I have a little UI suggestion: get rid of that pause after the program executes; I thought the compiler was stuck in a loop the first time I did this:

>compiler
Commandline expected
_

The program ought to exit right away in the final product. But good job nonetheless!

thanks.
but "golink icon.obj helloworld.o" somehow does the same thing and isn't working either.
both files are about 5-6 KB and the final product also is about that size.... somethings wrong.

btw: upload link has changed for anyone, who wants to download it: http://xload.dev-ch.de/file.php?id=716ddfc9b16d0ded

CURSES! I guess I don't know any more to do.

EDIT: I think it worked for me because I did it (the resource compiling) once with MinGW's windres.exe and never bothered to clean out the files to test it with gorc :/. I've now concluded that gorc is trash; I've uploaded just windres.exe binary here, and a screenshot of its usage here. GNU saves the day again.

And this has been incredibly frustrating for me too.

WOW! Working!!!

thank you so much

Edit: here is my working compiler!!

bfpp 1.0.0.zip

with examples and "stdio.bf" lol

WOW! Working!!!

I'm glad I could finally get something to work. Thanks for your patience.
