The first draft of Ao64A V2 is actually complete (and has been, for a while now). It is waiting in the queue at No Starch behind "The Art of ARM Assembly" which is about half-way through the editing process. I would hope that Ao64A V2 enters the editing phase later this year.

Cheers,

though i use cheat engine, but i still consider hla32 > masm64.
cheating is skill, mapping always faces debug.

HLA64

Post by rhyde »

I actually had HLA v3 (which would support 64 bits) well underway about 10 years ago. I abandoned the project once it was clear Windows would eventually drop support for 32-bit code (HLA v3 was written in 32-bit HLA code). Given my commitment to produce several new books for No Starch, trying to create a new version of HLA at this point would be hard to do. I would love to do HLA64 (and an ARM version), but it's such a low priority that I doubt I'll ever have time to complete it.

In the meantime, Art of ARM Assembly is about ready to head to the layout editors, so it should appear (very) late this year or early next year. Art of 64-bit Assembly, Vol 2 should be headed into the editorial cycle within a few months, and Art of ARM Assembly, Vol 2, should have a complete first draft by October, 2023. I might even consider starting on an Art of RISC-V Assembly at that point.
Cheers,
Randy Hyde

for chinese sound, especially sex hidden sound, as my personal:
can only support windows system, drop apple system.
can only support x86s, drop arm likes.
can only support console compile, drop gui compile.

just 1 direct thing, chinese sound can't afford sound jump, just like french face which can't afford face jump.
in tiktok chinese sound, from begin to end, you will hear the same personal sound.

Post by fffefd »

just for normal number privilege,
which asm hex byte already use,
26 36 38 64 65 66 67,
china can only support windows,
due to china sound never have nationwide privilege,
very hard to produce this,
even for windows.
