Microsoft Macro Assembler BNF Grammar

This page contains a BNF description of the MASM grammar. It's provided as a supplement to the reference and isn't guaranteed to be complete. Consult the reference for full information on keywords, parameters, operations, and so on.

To illustrate the use of the BNF, the following diagram shows the definition of the TYPEDEF directive, starting with the nonterminal typedefDir.

A chart showing the hierarchy of terminals and nonterminals that produce a typedefDir.

The entries under each horizontal brace are terminals, such as NEAR16, NEAR32, FAR16, and FAR32. Or, they're nonterminals such as qualifier, qualifiedType, distance, and protoSpec that can be further defined. Each italicized nonterminal in the typedefDir definition is also an entry in the BNF. Three vertical dots indicate a branching definition for a nonterminal that, for the sake of simplicity, this figure doesn't illustrate.

The BNF grammar allows recursive definitions. For example, the grammar uses qualifiedType as a possible definition for qualifiedType, which is also a component of the definition for qualifier. The "|" symbol specifies a choice between alternate expressions, for example endOfLine | comment. Double braces specify an optional parameter, for example ⟦ macroParmList ⟧. The brackets don't actually appear in the source code.
