Doubt_ Assembly
« on: May 28, 2008, 02:37:09 PM »
Hi .. Good afternoon.

I am developing a program in assembly language and I would like to see clarified a doubt. How do I know what is the last memory position of the code of the program. How can I find it? I need of your help!(Please)

Put a label there.

The question is, where do you want the label? Do you want the end of literal executable code, or including ".data" and ".bss", if any? If there's a linker involved, you may need to figure out what the linker thinks is "last" - or figure out how to *tell* it what you want "last".

Give us more information about what you're doing (usually when they don't mention "What OS?", it's Windows... sigh), and perhaps we can provide an actual example...

Best,
Frank

Very true :-(

> is the last memory position of the code

Note that writing above this address might still not be safe ...
