RE: Is there a place to store a pointer that I can pick up in an interrupt handler?

I think that's a little cleaner than a global as it limits the contract to the function call vs. leaving a variable out there that is hard to change down the road.

Thanks!

Globals are the only answer unless you want to write a function to return a pointer to a static member variable and call that from your interrupt routine. For example:

struct my_struct *get_my_struct_ptr() { static struct my_struct data; return &data; }
