Most changes are of the kind "if not correct, none of the Pelles C tools would build or run", but to verify reported bugs are fixed let's do a Release Candidate...

Hi Pelle,

Thanks for the new release. Regarding the keyword ALIAS :

Revised POASM handling of ALIAS directive (IA32, AMD64, ARM64).

Could you give an example? I am trying to rebuild my example below :

This one does not seem to work with Poasm Version 14.50.0 :

Code Select Expand

printf PROTO C :DWORD,:VARARG
OutputText PROTO C :DWORD,:VARARG

ALIAS "OutputText"="printf"

Assembling and linking the code below with Poasm Version 14.50.0 :

Code Select Expand

.386
.model flat,stdcall
option casemap:none

ExitProcess PROTO :DWORD
printf PROTO C :DWORD,:VARARG
OutputText PROTO C :DWORD,:VARARG

ALIAS "OutputText"="printf"

includelib  \PellesC\lib\Win\kernel32.lib
includelib  msvcrt.lib

.data

string      db 'Hello world!',0

.code

start:

    invoke  OutputText,ADDR string

    invoke  ExitProcess,0

END start
The executable is crashing.

An Ollydbg session is demonstrating the issue :

Code Select Expand

012D1000 > $ 68 00202D01    PUSH CalcLen.012D2000                    ;  ASCII "Hello world!"
012D1005   . E8 F6EFFFFF    CALL CalcLen.012D0000
012D100A   . 83C4 04        ADD ESP,4
012D100D   . 6A 00          PUSH 0                                   ; /ExitCode = 0
012D100F   . E8 00000000    CALL <JMP.&KERNEL32.ExitProcess>         ; \ExitProcess
012D1014   $-FF25 5C202D01  JMP DWORD PTR DS:[<&KERNEL32.ExitProcess>;  kernel32.ExitProcess
012D101A   .-FF25 64202D01  JMP DWORD PTR DS:[<&msvcrt.printf>]      ;  msvcrt.printf

CALL CalcLen.012D0000 is not correct.
