hi,

I tried using
public lup; the assembler gives error Indeed, because syntax error. Please read how to use PUBLIC and EXTRN directives. It is not hard. And if you used PUBLIC lup in one file (which it is created in) then think logicaly: where do you need to use EXTRN? In short: PUBLIC is used to mark any node (variable, function, simple number etc) in the file to be visible from other files. This way allows you to use the same names/labels in many files as long as they are not defined as PUBLIC. This directive may be useful for optimizer as well. EXTRN is used by compiler to recognize the type of an external node, so compiler may do its work even without actual node definition in the compiled file. But the linker/locator really needs with both directives. Is it still not clean? Regards, Oleg |
