Need help with interrupts

I'm trying to use a ST72321 MCU for a school project. The programming seems to OK, I can compile the program and run it in the STVD7 simulator.

But when I try to run it using my inDART programmer I can't get the interrupts to work. As far as I can see all flags are set and never cleared? The specific interrupt function is a timer using the main clock: In MAIN: MCCSR = 0x0E; (longest timebase, interrupt on) temp = MCCSR; (to clear OIF) _asm(''rim''); Call at interrupt vector address 0xFFF8 @interrupt void timerinterrupt (void) { temp = MCCSR; time++; } Have I missed a register setting, or is it my hardware that is acting up?

Hi,

It seems to me you did the right things ! Are you 100% sure that the problem is in the interrupt management ? Do you know if the first interrupt occurs ? Did you check the basic functionnalities of the CPU ? (clock) Can you try to set an output depending what part of your code you are executing ? BR laurent

I have checked functionallity both by using I/O ports connected to LEDs and by the more basic procedure of using breakpoints when running it through STVD7. I seem not to get any interrupts at all.

I wonder if it's SofTech's system that is acting up. I've gotten some really strange programming errors.
