CCS/SIMPLELINK-CC2640R2-SDK: Breakpoints not working in Code Composer Studio v8

Part Number: SIMPLELINK-CC2640R2-SDK

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi All,

This has been driving me crazy for the past three days.

Basically, I had breakpoints in my code, they were working just fine, but are no longer working at all.  It appears that CCS is ignoring all breakpoints.

I may have accidentally done something, however I cannot recall anything.

This is occurring in my code, as well as demo code supplied by TI.

CCS v8 with CC2640R2 SDK.

Thanks.

  • Never mind everyone, after three days I finally worked it out.

    My breakpoints had a line through them, which had me stumped. I ended up installing CCS8 on another computer, and activated a breakpoint, and noted that it did not have a line through it.

    This led me to believe that I had done something stupid. So I started to look through the menus, looking for something that might indicate why there is a line through my breakpoints. Then I found the menu item Run\Skip All Breakpoints. This is what caused this issue.

    And I now understand why. I had set a custom shortcut to build my code (Ctrl + Shift + B), and it appears that Skip All Breakpoints has a shortcut (Ctrl + Alt + B). So I assume that at some point I initiated a build using my custom shortcut, but instead of pressing (Ctrl + Shift + B), I have pressed (Ctrl + Alt + B), disabling all my breakpoints.

    Hope this helps someone else out there.
