Error in using ams { } with C++.

[jakkem]

For example the following gives me error
"expected `(' before '{' token"
"expected asm body before '{' token "
etc.

int main()
{
asm { /* some asm-functions */ }
}

"expected `(' before '{' token"
"expected asm body before '{' token "
etc.

int main()
{
asm { /* some asm-functions */ }

You didn't say which compiler you are using (the rules vary).

For example, using the GCC compiler suite it's:

asm ( /* multiple lines of assembler code */ );

If the -ansi compile switch is specified, then 'asm' is not
allowed (by ANSI), so you have to use the (GCC specific)
__asm__ keyword in place of the asm keyword.

Your compiler may vary...

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 uses __asm {}, 'asm' is ignored.
