<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a problem with assembler statements in source or header files.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If these asm statements need more than one line build2 reports an “unterminated string literal” error.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our core library has a lot of these assembler statements over more than on line:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Simple Example (see also attached foo.c):<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <span lang="DE">asm volatile("e_li %r0, 0 \n\<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE"> </span>e_li %r0, 0");<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">c:\Tools\build2\bin\b<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">foo.o.i:20:16: error: unterminated string literal<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> info: while parsing c{foo}<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> info: while applying rule c.compile to update obje{foo}<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> info: while applying rule c.link to update _bin\exe{relocatable}<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> info: while applying rule alias to update dir{.\}<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">info: failed to update dir{.\}<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">See attachment for <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- a log file with verbose level 5<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- foo.c and foo.h files<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- foo.o.i file <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- screenshot of strangely marked line in my Notepad++ if foo.o.i file is loaded<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If the asm statements are one liners it works:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">Examples:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">1. asm volatile("e_li %r0, 0; e_li %r0, 0");<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE">2. asm volatile("e_li %r0, 0");<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE"> asm volatile("e_li %r0, 0");<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there a way to get around that error?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
