In CCS, debugging with MSP-FET, going to Memory Browser, once I was able to find variables, their address and value.

In red when value changed during debugging.

Now i cannot.

Why the new version ( my is 11.1.0.00011 ) does not allow this?

Hello,

Can you provide more details (use case)? A screenshot of the issue would also help.

Thanks

media4 is a variable defined as long; memory always start from zero; once it showed location and value.

I assume that "media4" is not getting properly resolved in the Memory Browser view. If you add it to the Expressions view. does it show the correct value? Is media4 a local or global variable?

Thanks

Yes, added to "Expressions" field, it is showed as all others variables.

media4 is a global variable.

Entering "media4" in the Memory Browser would simply just to the address of the value of "media4". To jump to the actual address location of the variable, use "&media4".

Hy Ki, writing &media4 it shows its address and value.
