Anyone know any I'm trying to convert Hexadecimal to a Integer but I'm getting Core dumps unless someone eless knows here

ptr =-8
value =-4
strPtr =8

        .text
        .globl  hexToInt
hexToInt:
        pushl   %esp
        movl    %esp, %ebp
        addl    $ptr, %esp
        movl    $0, value(%ebp)
        movl    strPtr(%ebp), %eax
        movl    %eax, ptr(%ebp)

loop:
        movl    ptr(%ebp), %eax
        cmpb    $0, (%eax)
        je      allDone

        movb    (%eax), %al

        shll    $4, value(%ebp)

        cmpb    $'9', (%eax)
        jbe     temp1

        addl    $0x0f,(%eax)
        addl    $0x9, %eax

        addl    %eax, value(%ebp)
        incl    ptr(%ebp)
        jmp     loop
temp1:
        addl    $0x0f, %eax
        addl    %eax, value(%ebp)
        incl    ptr(%ebp)
        jmp     loop

allDone:
        movl    value(%ebp), %eax
        movl    %ebp, %esp
        popl    %ebp
        ret

here is the C-Code
[CODE]
#include "HexToInt.h"
unsigned int HexToInt(char *theString)
{
unsigned int value = 0;
char temp;
while(*theString != '\0')
{
value *= 16; /* peel off right digit */
if (*theString <= '9')
temp = *theString & 0x0f;
else /* convert ascii to int */
{
temp = *theString & 0x0f;
temp = temp + 9;
}
value += (int) temp;
theString++;
}
return value;
}

Why use ASM when you have a perfectly good C compiler to do the same thing for you?

If you're desperately curious, just do
gcc -c -S prog.c
Then marvel at the assembler equivalent in prog.s

You might give this a try.

Very first board. It doesn't get a ton of traffic, but several people frequent that site that use assembly and they're more than willing to help if they see someone post there.
