When some function calls panic: 1)Can I store some registers into nonvolatile memory. I will call this function from the very beginning of my panic function. 2) What exactly happens when a function calls panic .i.e. a)what all things are inaccessible, in my case I will be embedding my code at the very beginning of panic function, so what things will be inaccessible to my code b) what is control flow after a function calls panic. Any help will really useful. Kindly mail to venkatraghu2002@yahoo.com, as I did't subscribe. Regards Venkat. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
