about asm

[SonicChen]

I'm reading some source code like system.pas of delphi
and find some asm statement. Where can i get the knowledge about delphi assembly code.
example:

        PUSH    EBX
        PUSH    ESI
        PUSH    EDI
        MOV     EDI,ECX
        XOR     EBX,EBX
        XOR     ECX,ECX
        JMP     @@haveVMT

i know it's some register manipulation. but i never heard these registers and some of the directives.

this is simple assembly language called BASM (borland assembler), while it has not all the features of a full fledged assembler compiler like MASM (M$ asm) or TASM (turbo assembler from borland), it shares for 95% the same syntax. for more info about the instructions, take an intel i386 cpu manual and you'll find all the info there.
