Breakpoint and Debug stepping issues

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28035

I am currently having issues with setting breakpoints as well as stepping through code while in a debug session.

Currently I'm only allowed to set one breakpoint.  If I try to set a second one, I get the error "Error programming AET Job:  This task cannot be accomplished with the existing AET resources."

Also, when I reach the break point and try to either step over or step into, I get the same error "C28xx: Breakpoint Manager: Error programming AET Job: This task cannot be accomplished with the existing AET resources."

I am using CCS version 4.1.3.00038 with an Eval board TMS320F28035 and USB Emulator XDS100v1.

Any ideas?

Thanks

    There are only 2 hardware breakpoints available on C28x. Since you can only explicitly set one yourself, another is probably already automatically used by the debugger (set at main or at the exit point of your application). You can disable them from your Tools->Debugger Options->Generic Debugger Options when in a debug session.

    Thanks

    Yes, CCS4 is a bit of a nightmare.

    It would be nice if the error stated what you need to do, to get more break points, just click here to have up to 25 break points. "AFE resources?" Own up, who made that term up?

    Try the term "debug resources" next time!

    There is much worse with CCS. My colleague said that there are no descent environments that use eclipse, and he is sure that eclipse is not the problem.

    When you are use to using GCC, Code Composer is more about trying to keep the user calm while the Java environment crashes from the red stop button.

    Ideas?
