a Simple "Hello World" Inline Assembly language Program in C/C++

assembly, c, inline-assembly, x86

Solution

I don't have the Borland compiler on hand, so I might be misremembering its syntax, but have you tried this:

asm {
    mov ax,4       // (I/O Func.)
    mov bx,1       // (Output func)  
    lds cx,"Hello, world" // (address of the string)
    mov dx,6       //  (length of the string)
    int 0x21       // system call
}

or this:

char msg[] = "Hello, world";

asm {
    mov ax,4       // (I/O Func.)
    mov bx,1       // (Output func)  
    lds cx, msg   // (address of the string)
    mov dx,6       //  (length of the string)
    int 0x21       // system call
}

edit: although this will compile (now that I've changed MOV to LDS), it will still throw an error at runtime. I'll try again...

Problem

i use devcpp and borland c compiler.... ``` asm { mov ax,4 // (I/O Func.) mov bx,1 // (Output func) mov cx,&name // (address of the string) mov dx,6 // (length of the string) int 0x21 // system call } ``` in the above code snippets i want to print a string with the help of assembly language... but how can i put the address of the string in register cx.... is there something wrong in code???
