Real time Debugging TI Stellaris TM4C123 with IAR EW ARM

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SEGGER

Hi All,

I want to monitor my application's global variable on run time using TI TM4C123G launchpad which comes with Stellaris ICDI debugger. But when I want to enbale live watch on IAR EW for ARM it is disabled. My question is does stellaris ICDI debugger support real time debugging, I mean live watch of global variables inside IAR EW. 

Is there any way to live watch wit Stellaris ICDI debugger, or I should move to other debugger like segger JLink.

Thanks

Sattar Malokani

  • Hello Sattar

    I don't think that it is a debugger issue, but more of an issue with the IDE

    You are correct in your observations - to enable IAR's "Live Watch" (which is extremely powerful) you DO require a proper JTAG/SWD probe/pod.   (such as J-Link or better)   Note that the J-Link is sold by Segger at great discount via their "educational program."   And - you do not have to, "Swear to student status" to obtain the substantial discount - simply comply w/Segger's fairly liberal usage requirements.

    We note that J-Link users are FAR less plagued w/Loss of Connection issues which appear to run rampant w/vendor's (lesser) implementation.

  • And Segger has additional live monitoring tools that do not require a running IDE.
