INTTEST
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
RomWBW includes an API allowing applications to "hook" interrupts.
|
|
The `INTTEST` utility allows you to test this functionality.
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Syntax **
|
|
|
|
`INTTEST`
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Usage **
|
|
|
|
`INTTEST` is an interactive application. At startup, it will display
|
|
a list of the interrupt vector slots in your system along with the
|
|
current vector address for each of them.
|
|
|
|
It then prompts you to enter the slot number (in hex) of a vector to
|
|
hook. After entering this, the application will watch the hooked
|
|
vector and countdown from 0xFF to 0x00 as interrupts are noted.
|
|
|
|
When the counter reaches 0x00, the interrupt is unhooked and the
|
|
application terminates. The application can also be terminated by
|
|
pressing <esc>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Notes **
|
|
|
|
If your system is running without interrupts active, the application
|
|
will terminate immediately.
|
|
|
|
All slots have vectors even if the corresponding interrupt is not
|
|
doing anything. In this case, the vector is pointing to the "bad
|
|
interrupt" handler.
|
|
|
|
If you hook a vector that is not receiving any interrupts, the
|
|
down-counter will not do anything.
|
|
|
|
|
|
** Etymology* *
|
|
|
|
The `INTTEST` command is an original product and the source code is
|
|
provided in the RomWBW distribution.
