Yasm is a modular assembler, a complete rewrite of NASM under the BSD license, supporting x86 and AMD64 instruction sets with NASM and GAS syntaxes. It outputs many object formats (ELF, Mach-O, COFF/Win32/Win64, binary) and generates STABS, DWARF 2, and CodeView debug information.
Use cases
- assemble x86 or amd64 assembly code
- nasm-compatible assembler with a permissive license
- assemble NASM or GAS syntax into Win32/Win64 object files for Visual Studio
- generate ELF64 or Mach-O object files from assembly
- produce DWARF debug info for assembly code
When to choose
- you need a NASM-compatible assembler with BSD licensing
- you target multiple object formats or debug info standards from assembly
- you integrate assembly builds into Visual Studio projects
When to avoid
- you need assemblers for non-x86 architectures like ARM or RISC-V
- you want a modern actively evolving assembler with new instruction set support
- you prefer GNU as with GCC toolchain integration
