How to convert C++ code to ARM32 or ARM64 assembly
Godbolt, also known as “Compiler Explorer,” is a web-based tool that allows developers to write, compile, and analyze code in various programming languages, such as C++, Rust, Go, and more.
Let’s get started converting C++ code to ARM32/ARM64
Visit one of the following official website
By default, the editor opens with a sample C++ program
On the left side of the screen, you can write or paste your C++ code.
Above the code editor, there is a drop-down menu where you can select the compiler you want to use. By default, the compiler uses x86_64 gcc XX.X. Select “ARM64 gcc trunk” or “armv8-a clang (trunk)” for arm64-v8a, or “ARM GCC trunk” for armeabi-v7a
On the right side of the screen, you’ll see the assembly code that is generated from your high-level code. This output updates in real-time as you type or modify your code.
In this example, I convert float to ARM64
To convert assembly to hex, use ARM converter. Paste the ARM assembly into the text box and you will get the hex output
