I use CCS6.0.1 to debug MSP430F5438A.

The previous code can be compiled and debugged correctly.

But if add one assemble code :

__asm("BRA #0x20266");

Then it can't be debugged and show error like this:

"Load program error.

Encountered a problem loading file: D:\path...\.out

Can't open file"

I think your problem is in CCS, not in MSP430. You should post in the CCS forum, not the MSP430 forum.

The asm statement must begin with at least one space (or tab), otherwise it would be interpreted as a label.

Is that requirement in CCS manual?

Section 4.6. Source Statement Format of the MSP430 Assembly Language Tools User's Guide in the CCS 6 help says:

Note

A mnemonic cannot begin in column 1 or it will be interpreted as a label. Mnemonic opcodes and assembler directive names without the . prefix are valid label names. Remember to always use whitespace before the mnemonic, or the assembler will think the identifier is a new label definition.

So, yes the requirement is documented.
