Compiler Specific C Code | Keil C51 ISR Function Error

Hi There...

I have found an interesting thing and thought to share it over here.

While coding for an ISR function, that gets triggered during an interrupt service routine needs to be written in Keil as a compiler-specific code.

The code snippet looks like -

void Timer2_ISR (void) interrupt 5

{

//ISR Routine code

}

The code interrupt 5 is a compiler-specific and does not follow standard C syntax. Here the interrupt 5 is actually setting the vector number 5 during the compilation process by the Keil. However, this could provide syntax error in different IDE where the IDE uses C type generic syntax parser.
