Previously disabled interrupts can be enabled with the ENABLE statement. If the event associated with the interrupt is caused after an interrupt has been enabled, then the interrupt code is executed.

An ENABLE statement that does not specify an interrupt identifier is referred to as a general enable and causes the system to look for, and place in execution, all interrupts that are in the interrupt queue of the task.

If the ENABLE statement specifies an interrupt identifier, only that interrupt is enabled. The system executes all occurrences of the interrupt in the interrupt queue.

Disabling or enabling an interrupt is not affected by whether or not the interrupt is attached to an event.

For more information, refer to ATTACH Statement, DETACH Statement, and DISABLE Statement earlier in this section and to INTERRUPT Declaration.
