I actually did that a few months ago (when intrinsics came up on this list), and it does work as you expect. The actual difficult problem is argument location remapping. Other than that, inline-nostackframe-asm[registers] needs almost no changes. -- Regards, Martok _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
