The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows, version 3.1

ASMCLOCK is a direct translation of the sample program DIGCLOCK in Chapter 5 of Charles Petzold's "Programming Windows."

The purpose of this program is not to show the advantages of assembler programming over C for this particular application, but to show that programming for Microsoft(R) Windows(TM) is now possible with Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) version 6.0. Because of the new features in MASM version 6.0, this sample application was very straightforward to develop.

NOTE: You must have the Microsoft Windows version 3.1 Software Development Kit and MASM version 6.0 to build ASMCLOCK.

ASMCLOCK.ASM demonstrates many of the new features available with MASM 6.0. Please see the README.TXT file for more information.
