CCS/LAUNCHXL-F280049C: CCS debug can I write a data byte to a variable at starting the debugger

evs

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

Is there a way to communicate between the CCS debugger and my application to let it know the program is connected to the debugger.

For example writing a value to a variable at starting the debugger?

in the CMD file I can write code to ram directly but can I write a fixed value to a ram location?

Thanks.

Hi,

You can read DCON bit status in "TAP_STATUS" register (Table 3-167. TAP_STATUS Register Field Descriptions) to know if device is connected with CCS.

Ok thanks. Is it also possible to write a key to a memory location at startup of the debugger?

Thanks

For example can I write custom data to section 0 in the CMD file?

So i make a section in ram where I can write a custom key. That is invalid after a power cycle.

Thanks!
