Hi

I'd like to get the stackpointer value in my C program
I tried this, but I keep getting a compiler error
What am I doing wrong

monitorStackPointer(

long value
__asm { mov value, SP
printf("%0x\n", value)
Thanks, Keith

I tried this, but I keep getting a compiler error.

monitorStackPointer()
{
long value;
__asm { mov value, SP }

Keith,

The register is named "esp" in the 32-bit Intel world:

_asm mov value, esp;

Hello,

stack pointer is esp
__asm { mov value, esp } should work.

Hope this helps,
