Hi Paul
so this works
movl TSparseList.FList, %eax
but I don't think it is the equivalent of the original statement
Function TSparseList.ForAll( ApplyFunction: Pointer {TSPAApply} ):
Integer; assembler;
Asm
MOV EAX,[EAX].TSparseList.FList
JMP TSparsePointerArray.ForAll
End;
After some reading, it seems the EAX register initially contains the
memory address of the data block occupied by the TSparseList instance.
So I'm wondering if this would work.
addl TSparseList.FList, %eax
Any suggestions?
Todd.
