.CLASSDEF

Asmc Macro Assembler Reference

.CLASSDEF

.CLASSDEF name [args]

Declares a structure type for a COM interface.

.CLASSDEF adds the following types:

.classdef Class
  * LPCLASS typedef ptr Class
  * LPCLASSVtbl typedef ptr ClassVtbl
  * Class@Class proto :ptr Class
  * Class struct 8
  * lpVtbl LPCLASSVtbl ?

Release() is added as the first method:

    Method1 proc local  ; static
    Method2 proc :ptr   ; first virtual function
  * Class ends
  * ClassVtbl struct
  * T$000B typedef proto :ptr Class
  * P$000B typedef ptr T$000B
  * Release P$000B ?
  * T$000B typedef proto :ptr Class
  * P$000B typedef ptr T$000B
  * Method2 P$000B ?

To define a method locally in the base class the keyword LOCAL may be used. Locally defined functions are called directly without the _this argument omitted.

    assume rcx:LPCLASS

foo proc

  local p:LPCLASS

    [rcx].Method1()
    [rcx].Method2(rdx)
    [rcx].Release()
    ret

foo endp
