Reentrant?

I rarely ask questions on this forum, but since I couldn't [easily] find it in the help-files, or on-line, I'm asking you guys.

I usually (like never) don't use the 'reentrant' pragma, but I think I may have to do that with a particular routine.

BUT I can't find the key-word that declares a function as reentrant. Am I missing something? Is there one for Keil's IDE tools? If so, what is its form? Can I get a link to the 'official' use of it?

Thanks in advance, and I need it asap because I need to pass this class and I don't want to really learn how to do this 'embedded' stuff anyway but the teacher keeps hounding me.

  • Its late here on the East Coast of the USA on a Friday night, and while I was/am in my home-officeI noticed the response level jump up on my 'reentrant' question.

    Arroogah! Arroogah!

    Status: Code RED.

    Action: Deploy tactical ramble.

    Again, this is all covered in my "Rules for Radical Code Monkeys" book and complies with many of the Aero/DoD/MIL/FDA/etc high-reliability requirements. (Remember that phrase "High Reliability" doesn't mean that 'only' one out of 10,000 fails is an 'acceptable' number when it is one of your kids who died due to some code-monkey's stupidity).

    Rather than the many of somebody else's kids who die in your fantasies?

    It is fun to make fun of you Jack, so sometimes I do it just for that 'fun' reason, and without malice

    I didn't realise you usually did it with malice. How very upsetting.

    Well, I guess if that's the way the stats pan out, I'm in with the fish heads.
