Hi,
i have enabled the UART0 receiver interrupt.
i installed interrupt using :

ctl_set_isr(UART0_INT, 0, CTL_ISR_TRIGGER_FIXED, vUART0ISR_Wrapper, 0);
ctl_unmask_isr(UART0_INT);    /UART0_INT = 6

then the wrapper saves context, calls the handler and just blinks an led (LED2), then VICVectAddr =  0, then restore context.
the only task is running is LED1blink.
i open the terminal and i type a character and the LED2 emmits but the LED1 task freezes. it seems the whole scheduler freezed. Hints plz. thanks in advance.

First hint - try doing it the way the documentation says to do it, and the examples show it being done.  Don’t use ctl anything.

Look at the Interrupt Service Routines section of this page http://www.freertos.org/portlpc2106.html but note with the compiler that Rowley have been using (I think it changed recently) the call to vASwitchCompatibleISR_Handler() should be made from assembler as __asm volatile(“bl vASwitchCompatibleISR_Handler”); to stop it ever getting inlines. Also vASwitchCompatibleISR_Handler() should be written in ARM mode as ARM to THUMB interworking from naked functions is broken in <i>some</i> GCC versions.

Hi,
do u mean to use, VICIntSelect , VICIntEnable, VICVectAddr, VICVectCntl1 registers to set the interrupt?

Please check the C file. What is wrong in it? thanks

I have not read your C file, but the LPC2138 Rowley demo in the FreeRTOS download includes at least one ISR you can copy.
