    ADC,

    I am working with DM814x/AM387x device, thus I am not familiar with DM8127 device, but I will try to provide you some pointers, hope will be in help.

    Please have a look into:

    Hi Pavel,
    thank you for the reply. I have already taken a glance to some of that documents and i thought there was some specific guides 'cause in one of them (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Linux_Debug_in_CCSv5) i have read that advice:

    IMPORTANT! Some SDKs do not have gdbserver installed by default in the supplied filesystem. Check the SDK documentation for details on how to install it.

    but i can't found nothing in RDK 3.5 documentation. I'll try to follows your hints but i'll be glad if someone else familiar with DM8127 could give me more specific advices

    regards,
    Andrea

    Andrea,

    As this looks CCS related, I would also recommend you to double check in our CCS forum:

    http://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/code_composer_studio/f/81.aspx

    Below is one thread from the CCS forum regarding DM8127 + gdbserver

    Best regards,

    Hi Pavel,i have tried to follow hits tacken from one or another files/thread and i have installed gdbserver on target camera. Anyway i can't debug application with Eclipse 'cause something doesn't work at all, the connection seems to be ok but the execution doesn't start. To let execution proceeds i've to type 'continue' on gdb host console but anyway i can't control breakpoints in the editor ... Does it sounds familiar for someone? I'll continue to look for a solution, if i can't solve that problem maybe i'll write again in the forum

    thank you again
    regards
    Andrea
