JCLOCK2 fails to build with fasm 1.73.32

[turol]

Tried to build with latest fasm 1.73.32, got these:

flat assembler  version 1.73.32  (7232 kilobytes memory)
Error: definition of cb_s contains illegal instructions.
..\..\Include\jlmfasm.inc [201]:

I see. However, the fasm error messages are way too cryptic for me. No idea what problem it might have with the ends directive.

Btw, what probably should be changed: the VMMcall macro is a problem, because that name has become a cpu instruction name. Better rename it to @VMMcall ( if fasm allows symbol names beginning with '@' ).

I already have that change locally and it doesn't fix it. Do you know of a version of fasm which worked? Why do the JCLOCK JLMs use fasm when everything else seems to use jwasm?

No.

Why do the JCLOCK JLMs use fasm when everything else seems to use jwasm?

They were written by Alexey Voskov who asked me to include them. I'm not at all familiar with fasm. Couldn't you ask for help in the fasm forum? If you get a fix, let me know!

[turol]

I don't really feel like signing up for yet another forum. Are they on github? This is not critical, I was just trying to build all the examples. The others work (at least after #23) including the other JCLOCK so it doesn't matter to me. You could drop Alexey a note that this is now broken.

Try change "DD" "DW" "DB" in stuctures definition to lowercae "dd" "dw" etc.
