Greetings from a newby to this list. I'm working on division routines for the AVR embedded target and have been wondering what error handling convention is used in the embedded AVR RTL. At the moment the algorithm I'm using automatically returns max_size for unsigned division by zero and I don't have any checks because the code will run for a fixed number of iterations, then return.
I see that the generic div/mod routines call HandleErrorAddrFrameInd, but this generates a lot of extra code, and it eventually calls halt, which seems to end in an endless loop in _haltproc. I would think halting firmware on error is probably not always desired, so should I follow avr-gcc which also doesn't have error handling (at least not with default compiler settings)? _______________________________________________ fpc-devel maillist - fpc-devel@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-devel
