TBH I wonder if this is not worth a enhancement (or even a DIP)
to have in asm blocks a special alias syntax...
{
asm
{
version(...)
{
alias First = RDI;
alias Second = RSI;
// ...
}
else
{
alias First = RCX;
alias Second = RDX;
}
mov First, Second;
call aFunctionWithOneParam; // called with 2nd parent
param as 1st param
}
}
since the whole mixin solution make the custom asm unreadable
just because of this problem.
And Even maybe some special identifiers since extern(...) may
lead to problems...
Hmmm being the fact that "First" might be XMM0 i actually think
the predefined identifiers is clearly not a solution.
"alias" in asm blocks still stands though
