OK.  I am simulating in AVR Studio 4.12, and I have a problem.  My 
code depends on external asynchronus interrupts to work.  how do I 
simulate these in the AVR Studio environment, so I can test the code?

Specifically, I have 4 to 8 Hall effect sensors interrupting on input 
pins on port B, and I need to be able to see if the code does what it 
should when each one interrupts (and sometimes, when multiple, 
sequential interrupts have occurred)   How do I simulate external 
interrupts in AVR STudio (I am coing in assembly, if it matters to anyone).

The only way I know of is to go to the I/O view and click on
the flag you expect to be set, the next cycle, whether in
single step or run mode will see the flag and start the int
sequence.

In Studio, go to Debug->AVR Simulator Options. Highlight Stimuli and Logging.
In the Function box, check Stimuli and enter your file name in the, now input,
file box. Check the on-line Tools help under Simulator->Simulator Options for
the required file format. Have fun!

Thanks, Bruce.  That got it.
