trying to convert this c++ code to masm
PSDATA 64 db (?)
dll.asm(25) : error A2008: syntax error : integer
i first did it that way then tried
ppdata PSDATA 64 <?>
dll.asm(25) : error A2179: structure improperly initialized
dll.asm(25) : error A2008: syntax error : in structure
any help?

dll function is FindPSData

it will return the number of items

and we must pass the pointer to array of PSDATA

 

using ps.dll

 

typedef struct PPSDATA{

char resname[100];

char restype[100];

char usrname[100];

char pass[100];

} PSDATA;

PSDATA psd[500];

typedef int ( *FINDPSDAT)(PSDATA *psd);

FINDPSDAT FindPSd;

FindPSd = (FINDPSDAT)GetProcAddress(LoadLibrary((LPCTSTR) "ps.dll"), "FindPSData");

int psno;

if(FindPSd) psno=FindPSd(psd);

else

MessageBox(0,"failed","r",MB_OK);

char messout[500];

for(int i=0;i<psno;i++){

wsprintf(messout,"%s %s %s %s",psd[i].resname,psd[i].restype,psd[i].usrname,psd[i].pass);

MessageBox(0,messout,"out",MB_OK);

}

 

 

PSDATA struc

 resname db 100 dup (?)

 restype db 100 dup (?)

 usrname db 100 dup (?)

 pass    db 100 dup (?)

PSDATA ends

 .data

    RetAddress   DWORD ?

    TheDLL       db "ps.dll",0

    TheFunction  db "FindPSData",0

 

 .data?

    PSDATA 64 db (<>)

    hLib         dd ?

    FunctionAddy dd ?       ; the address of the The dll Function

 .code

   start:           

           invoke LoadLibrary,offset TheDLL 

                        mov hLib,eax 

            invoke GetProcAddress,hLib,addr TheFunction 

                             mov FunctionAddy,eax 

                             push OFFSET PSDATA

                             call [FunctionAddy]

                            Invoke MessageBox,0,addr TheDLL,eax,0

           invoke FreeLibrary,hLib 

          invoke ExitProcess,NULL

ok that worked... now how would i get data from the struct
