Ada interrupt handlers
ada, interrupt-handling
Solution
I think you're on the right track, but if you haven't done this before, I would, if I were you, review some of the articles that have been published on interrupt handling with Ada. E.g.:
- Catching and Handling Interrupts in Ada
- Gem #13: Interrupt Handling Idioms (Part 1)
- Gem #14: Interrupt Handling Idioms (Part 2)
Problem
When using Ada interrupt handlers, I have so far isolated some specific things that need to be in the code for them to work. Using Ada.Interrupts: ``` protected Int_Handler is --a protected object to handle interrupts procedure Handler_1; --A procedure which handles interrupts from your first device (with a body, of course) pragma Interrupt_Handler (Handler_1); --To tell the compiler this is an interrupt handler --Later in the program: begin Attach_Handler (Int_Handler.Handler_1'access, Serial_1); ``` Assuming this is all correct and I've enabled interrupts in the registers, is there any other interrupt-related code I would need to add to this? Particularly, would I need to interact with the registers directly to in some way 'link up' my handler code, or can I just set up a record representation of the registers, output to them directly the necessary settings, and let rip? Thanks!
