Constants within asm statement
Posted: 26 Apr 2007 08:29
When using asm statement to include some assembly language within the Pascal program it would be very useful if Constants defined before could be used.
E.g.:
asm
...
SBRS R16,TWINT
...
end;
This gives a compiler error that TWINT is unknown, BUT it is defined as a constant with value $07.
So instead you have to use
asm
...
SBRS R16,$07
...
end;
This works but I cannot see any good reason why constants should not be allowed there.
Thank You
