CCSTUDIO: Does CCS supports loading multiple programs at a time?

Part Number: CCSTUDIO


Dear experts,

I am currently using CCS version 8.3.0.00009. I would like to inquire whether CCS supports loading more than one program at a time.

Specifically, I intend to load both the bootloader code and application code for debugging purposes.

If CCS does not support this functionality, could you suggest an alternative method to debug both the bootloader code and the application code simultaneously?

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,

C.C. Liu 

  • Hello,

    I am currently using CCS version 8.3.0.00009

    Please note that you are using a very old and unsupported version of CCS

    I would like to inquire whether CCS supports loading more than one program at a time.

    Yes you can load multiple programs, one after the other (assuming both programs are in separate memory regions and you are not erasing the prior program on the second program load). The issue you may run into is that when you load a program, it will remove any existing symbols that was loaded before. Hence you may need to re-add the previous symbols by using the "Add Symbols" option. That way you will have symbols for both programs loaded in the debugger.

    Thanks

  • Hi Ki,

    Thank you for your prompt reply.

    As we need to debug our old project, we are using this version (Thanks for the soft reminder).

    Yes, the memory regions for the two programs do not overlap. Following your suggestion, it is working fine.

    Thank you and regards,
