I've been studying assemby for about a semester now. I am having a horrible time figuring out how to access the data I pass from C++ to ASM. The data is a array of strings which I will have to sort in ASM and return a sorted array back to C++. The biggest problem I am having is accessing the data itself. The array is being passed at [ebp+8]... Any help with this is appreciated.

This is the C++ code I'm working with;

extern "C" int Sort (char [] [20], int, int);

	Sort (Strings, 10, 20);
	cout << "Sorted Strings are" << endl;
	for (i = 0; i < 10; i++)
		cout << '\t' << Strings [i] << endl;

You can probably ignore my code, but I figure I would put it anyways;

_Sort proc

		push		ebp
		mov			ebp, esp 
		push		edi
		
		mov			eax, [ebp+08]
		mov			array_ptr, eax
		mov			eax, [ebp+12]
		mov			array_length, eax
		mov			eax, [ebp+16]
		mov			bytes_per_line, eax
	
		mov			eax, array_length
		cmp			eax, 0			;jump if array has length of 0
		jnae		EndTRow
		
		mov			ebx, found_length
		inc			ebx			;add 1 to found_length's sum
		cmp			ebx, eax	;jump if at last row
		ja			EndTrow
;		mov			found_length, ebx

Tcolumns:
		mov			eax, char_position
		mov			ebx, bytes_per_line
		cmp			eax, ebx
		jnb			TRows

... ...and it becomes useless jargon here

EndTrow:
		pop			edi		
		pop			ebp
		ret
_Sort endp
