inline asm

[equinoX]

Hello guys,

I'm trying to insert some inline asm codes into a project but I have a doubt about it, for example:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main ()

{

        int i=2;

	_asm mov eax,i
	_asm sub eax,1
	_asm mov i,eax

	cout << i << endl; 

    cin.get();
    return 0;
    
}

The code is working fine and the int i contains 1 as we can see, is there some way to return the that decimal value in binary value? (which would be 00000000000000000000000000000001 in a 32-bit format)

If yes, how should I declare the new variable to store the binary value?
a bitset?

Regards,

'i' is not decimal, the output is. 'i' is really binary already, but 'cout' converts it to decimal. I'm sure there is some way to do this with the standard libraries, but I don't know what it is.
Something like this should work, I think...

for(int p = 0; p < 32; p++){
    cout<<i & (1<<p);
}

Also, this question has nothing to do with assembly.

Thanks for the reply hamsterman,

In fact everything in computer is binary stuffs, including this message I'm writing.

I used a very simple example just to exemplify what I was asking, I'm plaining to insert something much more complex and it will return me an array of bitmaps.

My question was: how to "display" any value in binary value?

And you said: "Also, this question has nothing to do with assembly."

Well..

_asm mov eax,i
_asm sub eax,1
_asm mov i,eax

You are right, perhaps I should ask what means these lines in a VB forum.
