Hi Benjamin, When you declare your ISR as an interrupt_handler, GCC terminates the function with an "rte" instead of an "rts". The ROM code that dispatches the interrupt to your function is already doing the rte so your function should not. Here's (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Having fun yet :-) There are a few things you might want to keep in mind when writing ISRs for the RCX... First, avoid calling into the ROM from an interrupt handler. You never know how long they take, and you may in fact be hitting another OCIA (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, I am currently programming the Lego RCX at low-level (plain C) using the GCC cross-compiler for Hitachi H8/300 and Kekoa Proudfoot's LibRCX. In fact, I'm designing exercises for students that learn micro-controller programming. Therefore, I (...) (21 years ago, 2-Mar-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
