Could someone teach me how to enable and use the serial port IRQ. I need this to detect whether there a transmitting or receiving error (like parity error, etc). I'm using turbo C on a 286/386 PC. I would appreciate if you could include some examples.<br />

Thanks ;)<br />

Serial port IRQ

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.
