C funtion debugging on a PC

user4565873

Hello all,

I m trying to find out how to debug a simple C function on a PC to be sure of its behavior before sending it to another engineer who is going to perform on-board tests.

I m used to always debug on a board, and i completely have no idea how to do.

I found out on the forum i could turn on the option "local C/C++ application"

But when i launch i got the following error:

"C28xx: GEL: Error while executing OnTargetConnect(): Cannot read register ST1: data is not present at (ST1&~(0x0100)) [f28235.gel:312] at C28x_Mode() [f28235.gel:83] at OnTargetConnect() .

C28xx: Can't Run Target CPU: This operation is not supported by this driver"

Any idea what s going on ?

As far as i only want to debug one function, any idea for the best method?

Thank you,

Best regards.

if you want to debug on PC, you need to compile your code for the processor used in your PC, not for C28x.
For that i believe you need to use different compiler and not TI C2000 compiler.

based on your error log i guess you are using CCS and trying to launch the download to target.
You can try VC++ if you want to verify the function on PC. this is one option, but you can search google for other options as well.
