           Summary: Inline Assembler offset keyword

The compiler confuses offset keyword in the inline assembler with .offsetof
property and issues a deprecated keyword error. This is easily reproduced by
compiling the following:

CODE:

int[5] bar;

void foo()
{
  asm
  {
    mov ECX,offset bar;
  }
}

a workaround would be to do this:

int[5] bar;

void foo()
{
  void* pbar = &bar;
  asm
  {
    mov ECX,pbar;
  }
}

after issuing the error it says to use offsetof instead, and when you write:

int[5] bar;

void foo()
{
  asm
  {
    mov ECX,offsetof bar;
  }
}

it compiles and runs until a runtime error is issued.
