Good day
What happens when a label in the current file has the same name as a label in one of the included files?
Like
L1:
... ...
jmp L1

and there is an L1 label in one of the included files.
How does Assembler resolves such a situation?

Regards

there are different ways.
most preferable is using of local labels. some labels become local automatically (for masm inside proc/endp) etc.
there is also "anonimous" label: "@@", but using of it may appear tricky sometimes.

ja @F ; to nearest @@ forward
... ...
@@:
... ...
jmp @B ; to nearest @@ backward

finally, you may use unic names with meaningful prefixes:


my_proc:
...
my_proc_loop:
...
jz my_proc_done
...
jmp my_proc_loop
...
my_proc_done:
...
ret

The last option i think is the best.

Thank you, Shoorick
