write to EEPROM and interrupt

[rsocor01]

swr999, I have used the "DEFINE WRITE_INT 1" directive with my 18F parts and have had no problems. The READ instructions are not to my knowlege prone to disruption with interrupts enabled.

Hi. Is this a PBP3 DEFINE? I don't see this in my PBP 2.60 manual. What does it do?

DEFINE WRITE_INT 1 is used to avoid write errors during a WRITE to EEPROM which might otherwise possibly be caused by an interrupt occurring during the write. The functionality is that it disables interrupts just prior to executing a WRITE instruction, and re-enabls interrupts after the WRITE completes. Appears to be strictly a PBP3 feature.

With regard to the "DEFINE WRITE_INT 1" directive, it appears to be available at least from PBP 2.50 onwards. I misspoke above^^^. Apologies.
