I have some x86 assembly code, compiling under MASM32 6.14.8444 (to be precise), and there is one line of code that is causing me some problems:
semicolon equ ";"
As you can see, I’m simply trying to assign the text ";" to a variable named ‘semicolon’, but I get this error:
error A2046: missing single or double quotation mark in string
I’m guessing this is because assembly takes the semicolon to be the start of a comment. In this case, how can I escape the semicolon in my string constant?
This compiles
