Hi ABBKlaus,

i have test the new version with my PB 4.41, but i got an error message and i don't know to solve it. The Tailbite Version 1.4.2 works fine with my 20k Sourcecode. If i use 1.4.3 with the tailbite Manager and the Funktion "check for errors", no error apears. If i choose "Tailbite!" he start to compile, ask fo the help file and then an error appears:

FAsm: MP3D_LibrarShared.asm Out of Memory.

I don't find the file MP3D_LibrarShared.asm. Do you have an idea what happens and what i can do?

Thanks,

Michael

It would appear to be due to the integration of Fasm into tailbite. Fasm seems to need more than 8mb for that shared asm file.
Replace your tailbite.exe with this one and see if it fixes it (it will allocate up to 256mb - by doubling the buffer size each try)
Your won't need fasm.dll any more if it's there either

Hi lexvictory,

thanks for your help. The programm starts now with the "compile asm code...", but the next error appears then:

Line:55
C:\Users\lex}Documents\pb\Tailbite\tailbite-svn\inc_fasm.pb
Stack overflow
Exit program

Yes or no button to push

i hope you have ans suggestion or idea? Tailbite 1.4.2 work fine with the same file....

Greetings Michael

TailBite 1.4.2 uses fasm.exe from the pb directory, TailBite 1.4.3 uses fasm as a procedure (it's statically linked - or as a dll in the released version, i added the static link after 1.4.3 was released)
1.4.3 also has a couple of speed improvements that shouldn't affect the asm, but could (hence the 2nd step below)

Two things that might help:
1: download debugview (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysi ... 96647.aspx) and run it, then tailbite your lib, then post the debug output here
2: compile the lib with the 'dont build library, only source files' and 'keep source files' (/DONT and /KEEP on the command line), use fasm.exe in your compilers dir and make sure that the shared asm still compiles

Until then, you can use the above mentioned command line options in conjunction with 'create build batch file' and then run the batch file to make the lib.

(Tailbite manager option labels are inside ' ' because I'm working off the top of my head)

i don´t see any tryno+1 :wink:

i would use static instead.

Code:

Procedure.s CompileAsmFasm(file.s, out.s)
Static tryno=0
;Debug file 
;debug out
Protected *newbuf
  If tryno
    fasm_memSize = fasm_memSize*2
    OutputDebugString_("trying to allocate new membuf of MB: "+Str(fasm_memSize/1024/1024))
    *newbuf= ReAllocateMemory(*membuf, fasm_memSize)
    If *newbuf
      *membuf = *newbuf
      OutputDebugString_("new mem buf succeeded")
    Else 
      fasm_memSize / 2;since it didnt work
      ProcedureReturn ("Out of memory")
    EndIf
  EndIf 
  Protected res = fasm_AssembleFile(file, *membuf, fasm_memSize, 100, cons)
  Select res
    Case #FASM_OK
      ;debug "yes"
      Protected ofile = CreateFile(#PB_Any, out)
      If ofile
        WriteData(ofile, *membuf\output_data, *membuf\output_length)
        CloseFile(ofile)
        OutputDebugString_("Ok, "+Str(*membuf\output_length)+" bytes.")
        ProcedureReturn ("Ok, "+Str(*membuf\output_length)+" bytes.")
      Else
        OutputDebugString_("Could not create obj file to write data to")
        ProcedureReturn ("Could not create obj file to write data to")
      EndIf 
    Case #FASM_ERROR   ; FASM_STATE contains error code
      OutputDebugString_("Error")
      ProcedureReturn ("Error"+#CRLF$+"Line no: "+Str(*membuf\error_line\line_number)+#CRLF$+"Error code: "+Str(*membuf\error_code)+#CRLF$+"Error String: "+ErrorCodeToString(*membuf\error_code))
    Case #FASM_INVALID_PARAMETER   
      ProcedureReturn ("Invalid Parameter")
    Case #FASM_OUT_OF_MEMORY   
      If tryno = 5;6 tries max - 256mb ram...
        ProcedureReturn ("Out of memory")
      Else
        tryno+1
        ProcedureReturn CompileAsmFasm(file.s, out.s)
      EndIf
    Case #FASM_STACK_OVERFLOW   ;    = -3
      ProcedureReturn ("Stack Overflow")
    Case #FASM_SOURCE_NOT_FOUND;= -4
      ProcedureReturn ("Source not found")
    Case #FASM_UNEXPECTED_END_OF_SOURCE   ; = -5
      ProcedureReturn ("Unexpected end of source")
    Case #FASM_CANNOT_GENERATE_CODE   ; = -6
      ProcedureReturn ("Cannot Generate Code")
    Case #FASM_FORMAT_LIMITATIONS_EXCEDDED ;= -7
      ProcedureReturn ("Format Limitations Exceeded")
    Case #FASM_WRITE_FAILED      ; = -8
      ProcedureReturn ("Write Failed")
    Default
      OutputDebugString_("Unhandled Error: "+Str(res))
      ProcedureReturn ("Unhandled Error: "+Str(res))
  EndSelect
EndProcedure

Hi,

1) First step:

i have activated

'dont build library, only source files'
'keep source files'
Generate build batch file

If i start the bachtfile, no error appears and the lib is written

2) Second Step, Debug View
the log file stops at point 430, after 33 Seconds the error Message appears, an the last log info comes. This look like a never endeing repeating and the stack overflow will come after 33 second

D'oh!

mpz: i uploaded a fix (as ABBKluas pointed out, it was my coding error meaning it was recursively calling the function, without actually increasing the memory buffer size)
download link is the same (https://sourceforge.net/projects/tailbi ... e/download)

Hi lexvictory,

you got it. Now the Tailbite 1.4.3 version create the lib fast. No problems detected and the created lib works fine

Thanks you
Michael

ABBKlaus · **Posted:** Thu Feb 25, 2010 12:12 pm

would be interesting to know which memory buffer succeeded

lexvictory · **Posted:** Thu Feb 25, 2010 12:20 pm

Do you mean what method I solved it with?
Or adding extra debug info?

yes, i meant the tailbite logfile.
Adding this info would be good for reproducing those bugs without the need to send huge source codes

lexvictory · **Posted:** Thu Feb 25, 2010 12:40 pm

I was just working from mpz's info, I knew where the error was coming from, and added in a fix, then got mpz to test it.
I don't have a sourcecode big enough to cause it. (hence why I missed tryno not being incremented)

just uploaded a bugfixed version, please redownload ;-)
