$

[grounded]

I'm learning to program in pbp-cdlite and looking at some code that I found, I saw this not sure but is "$0" and "$90" reseting all the flags and interupts.
in the OPTION_REG. AND INTCON

please explain

MAIN
OPTION_REG=$0
ON INTERRUPT GoTo bump
INTCON=$90

just trying to learn, asking for a little help

thanks

$ is just a tag that mean it's a HEX value.

The PBP default 'radix' (if i can call it like that) is dec. So when you want to use Binary or Hex value, you must tell to the compiler.

MyVar=10 <= 10 decimal
Myvar =$90 <= 90 HEXadecimal
MyVar=%11110000 <= Binary value = $F0 = 240 decimal

please explain

MAIN
OPTION_REG=$0
ON INTERRUPT GoTo bump
INTCON=$90

Hard to say what it does if we don't know the PIC model. BUT many times, some of the interrupts flags are reset in the INTCON register.
Better and safer if you refer to your PIC datasheet to see what it do.

In my case, i prefer to use Binary as value. Easier to refer to the datasheet after few months/week/year/Century/milenium ...

INTCON=%10010000 is easier to figure out with the datashet than INTCON=$90 IMHO once again.
Also use Alias/Symbol to access directly to a specific register bit, Let's say

RCIF    VAR PIR1.5   ' USART rx interrupt flag => Buffer full/empty
GO_DONE VAR ADCON0.0 ' ADC conversion status bit

thank you mister_e

I had alway used the $0 and $90 because a guy sent me some code and he used it. but I did not know what it meant. but it worked.
I 1st.did the code below with it and it worked. and then I did the code looking things up in the data sheet (like you suggested) and again it worked.

INTCON.4=1 'ENABLE RA2 EX. INT.
OPTION_REG.6=0 'SET RA2/INT FOR FALLING EDGE
INTCON.1=0 'RESET RA2/INT

ON INTERRUPT GoTo BUMP


I was thinking it might be some kinda wild card that reset everything.
don't laugh at my code I just learning.
