Hi,

Is there any way to stop the program being halted when reset the processor with this:

HWREG(NVIC_APINT) = NVIC_APINT_VECTKEY | NVIC_APINT_SYSRESETREQ;

Any comments are appreciated!

Hello Xiangyun,

If the debugger is connected then it shall halt the CPU when the processor is reset. If not then it will not halt the CPU.

Hi Amit,

thank you for your concerning.

So there's no way to change this?

You may wish to investigate if the older, more established (superior - in my book) IDEs may accommodate your objective. (Keil & IAR come to mind - both have free, eval versions - accept ARM MCUs from multiple vendors - and (long) have accommodated SWD (which over-challenges, still) here.)

Thank you for your help, I'll try this if I can't find another way, as I don't think porting to another IDE is easy.

May I note that, "not succeeding w/long standard capabilities - and across multiple vendors" proves, "Far from easy..."

Hello Xiangyun,

There are ways in software to achieve the same but they will not stop the code execution exactly at 0x0.
