DS development > functions between ARM9->ARM7

Hi,

How is it possible to call a function, say, in ARM7 from ARM9?

I'm guessing its not a simple macro to do the trick?

Thanks for any enlightenment.

not directly. but you can send commands in a shared memory. the other cpu fetch commands, executes the corresponding function and send back the returncode using shared memory.

I _think_ you can use the lickfifo library, but I don't know if that's supposed to be used, still.
