UXTB only Thumb2?

Hi All,

Arm9 crashed on UXTB instruction because it is not able to decode it. It caused Undef-Instruction exception.

I have been trying to find if UXTB which is a Thumb2 instruction (only supported on ARMv7 onwards) is also supported by Thumb. In other words can I actually use UXTB instruction on Arm9 (ARMv5)?

Thanks a lot,
Samar

The Thumb quick reference card outlines which instructions are available in each architecture, and can be found here : [url="http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.qrc0006e/QRC0006_UAL16.pdf"]http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.a...C0006_UAL16.pdf[/url]
