Question

I remember back in the day with the old borland DOS compiler you could do something like this:

asm {  mov ax,ex  etc etc... } 

Is there a semi-platform independent way to do this now? I have a need to make a BIOS call, so if there was a way to do this without asm code, that would be equally useful to me.

Answer 1

Using GCC

__asm__('movl %edx, %eax\n\t'         'addl $2, %eax\n\t'); 

Using VC++

__asm {   mov eax, edx   add eax, 2 }
