Good, I am glad to be wrong then. Currently in LDC you have two different ways to tell the compiler to inline some Asm. Such syntaxes are not present in D/DMD. So do you plan to add something like those two syntaxes to D/DMD too? One of them is this pragma: http://www.dsource.org/projects/ldc/wiki/Docs#allow_inline int add(int a, int b) { pragma(allow_inline); asm { mov EAX, a; add EAX, b; } } And the other one is Inline asm expressions: http://www.dsource.org/projects/ldc/wiki/InlineAsmExpressions That are used like this: // store val into dst void store(ref int dst, int val) { __asm("ldw r4, $1 ; stw r4, $0", "=*m,r,~{r4}", &dst, val); } Bye, bearophile
