Does anybody know of any functions/libraries/plugins for use in Visual Studio that can be used to convert between ASM & Hex in a C++ environment?

Essentially what I need is to continuously read bytes from a file until I have a full instruction, so there would need to be a return value for "not an instruction", like if I put in a byte that wasn't an instruction on its own.

You mean a disassembler? It comes with one. Go to Tools > ILDasm, provide the PE executable, and voilá! There it is.

Your library also depends on what processor, what version of the processor, etc. For example, the Intel and MIPS processors have very different instruction sets.

no, I mean something I can use in the program, not a tool to use. As in, a user could input hex into my program and get an assembly output or something. Something in the program, not the IDE

Try Google.

oh thanks.. I've never had much luck finding the right libraries with google, but I guess it might've worked for this.

Thanks!
