[avr-libc-dev] Re: volatie with winavr2010 ?

Sorry for the extra noise in this list, since the thread is off-topic, 
but I never like to leave a mistake as the last word in a thread...

That would be the case if the declaration of "first_edge" had been 
within the ISR function.  But it's at file scope, and thus has a 
permanent lifetime.

Leiu, your ISP function itself looks okay as it stands, but there are 
three obvious weak points that you should look at.  First is the 
avr2pc() function - since you've given us nothing to work on, no one can 
tell you if the bug lies there.  Do more checking and testing on that 
function, and post more details if you are having problems.

Second, there may be issues with your hardware or serial port - check it 
properly.

Third, drop "hyperterminal".  It is far and away the worst possible 
terminal program, and could well be the problem itself.  Get a better 
one - there are hundreds available free.  I /really/ don't want to start 
a discussion here about which terminal programs are the best, so I'll 
just give you one - "Tera Term Pro".

Other than that, as Jørg says, post in address@hidden for more 
help.

mvh.,

David
