    Is there a way to compile assembly and C together?

    I am using Visual C++ 6.0 in Windows XP. Is there a way that I can code assembly with C and compile it?
    Thanks

    Inline Assembler from MSDN

    It says C++, but it you read it says it works for both C and C++. Also, Google is Your Friend... Search the Web... Read the ' Manual... and all that junk.

    Every time that I use __asm{} in C, it gives an access violation error when I use the int command(interrupt). And thats if it doesn't freeze first.
    Please help!

    Post code?

    Note that modern operating systems don't let you freely do interrupts and will kill your app if you attempt to.

    If I just type
    Code:
    __asm
    {
    }
    and if I click on the __asm statement I freezes

    Why would it do that? BTW, I can use Notepad to write assembly and it works.

    Wow, your compiler freezes when you click on some text!

    Maybe code editor, not the compiler.

    Why would it do that?
    Applications don't have such low level accesses in modern OSes.

    VC6 is a 32 bit compiler, running on a 32-bit OS.

    16-bit real-mode interrupts are just a really bad idea.

    Now, which int() are you trying to call, so we can tell you which is the most likely win32 API call to use in it's place.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
