stm32 how to read register bits in keil

[tariq]

hi
for example in register NVIC->ICER i want to read bit number 7 in software .
i see it in my debug session but i want my software check it so i looking for a way to read the bit
this register is 32 bit so i defined a 32 bit variable with this command
uint32_t check_register;
and then
check_register=NVIC->ICER;
so i can shift the bit in check_register and check bit number 1
but this :
check_register=NVIC->ICER;
doesn't work.
how can i read register?what is the best way to read register bits?
thank you.

How does it fail? Reads nothing? Drops some error?
You might want to apply a mask:
check_register = NVIC->ICER & (1<<7);

What mcu? In Cortex M0 it's just a single ICER register, but in others it's an array:

it's stm32f101vbt6 which is Cortex M3.
this command
check_register = NVIC->ICER & (1<<7);
has error. i uploaded the error picture.
all i want is to check the Intended bit in if() command.what is the best way to do it?

ICER is an array, there are multiple ICER registers. If you want to check the 7th bit, then it will be located in the first register :

check_register = NVIC->ICER[0] & (1<<7);

The structure member ICER is an array of volatile uint32_t (array length is 1), so the correct syntax should be:

check_register = NVIC->ICER[0] & (1<<7);
