about GDB for C674 debug?

Dear all,

  In TI document that C674/BIOS support the GDB to debug. It is an exciting debug capbility for DSP.

May I know GDB only supports the program built by GCC?

 Now we have TI DSP compiler like below.  May I know the programs built by this version of TI compiler support GDB debug? If no, any plan to support that?

cl6x.exe  v7.3.1
 thanks a lot

    Hi Jiang Peng,

    The TI Compiler, CCS ( Code composer Studio ) supports GDB. The following TI wiki link explains how to run GDB on CCV5 ( version: 5 ) http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/How_to_Run_GDB_on_CCSv5.

    No, GDB supports the program compiled by other compilers too. Actually GDB is not compiler specific but platform specific. I mean, TI platforms supports GDB in general.

    If you would like to do remote debugging on target with GDB using CCS, it is possible as well, provided the GDBserver is running on the target side. Usually the binary of the GDBserver comes with TI development kits like SDK or along with toolchains like  Code sourcery or GCC.
