    Shan,

    Sorry, I'm having difficulty understanding your problem description.  Are you saying that you r problem is that you can run the examples, but when you set a breakpoint, the program counter reaches that address but execution does not halt?

    Hai David ,

                       Thanks for your reply, But my problem is different , When try to practice with the example program comes along with the CD DVSDK.

    It is not working properly...... I will open the project and i will build , It doesnt shows any errors at that time , But when i load the program it automatically running and

    i am not getting the output also...... and the STDOUT window in the CCS is also not opening ...... It seems like any thing i didnt face this type of problems before ,

    If the printfs being used are BIOS LOG_printf then you will need to go to Tools -> RTA -> Printf Logs (likely what is used in this example)

    If the printfs from the standard C library will show up in the console view.  Note that the console view can be showing different things, to see CIO click on the little arrow beside monitor icon on the console view and select CIO in the drop down.  Normally it will automatically switch to that context but if some other message occurs it will switch to show it instead.

    You can also disable the automate run to main.  Right click on your project and select Debug Properties.  Click on the Target tab, scroll down to "Auto Run Options", uncheck the boxes to run to main on load/restart and reset.

    Regards,

    John

    Chan,

    It appears that you have more than one thread going on the Forum with the same (or at least overlapping) issues: http://e2e.ti.com/support/dsp/davinci_digital_media_processors/f/99/p/66833/243302.aspx#243302

    The problem as you describe above does not appear to be a problem with using DSP/BIOS, but rather a generic issue getting Code COmposer Studio to work.

    I am going to go ahead and call this thread "answered" so that the other one can be used.  However, my advice to you to get your questions answered in the most efficient way possible is:

     

    - Do not present post a thread with multiple issues or problems.  Post a different thread for each issue so that the threads can be put on the most relevant forum for each issue.

    - Be sure to include in each thread exactly what versions of the chip, platform and software tools that you are using.

    - Make sure that your problem description has as much detailed information as possible to allow someone to try and help.  Include screen shots or source code if it would help.

    Good to hear that you were able to resolve the issue.  Thanks for the link to the gel file.  I downloaded the file and it is actually the same as the one in CCS.  However the one in CCS only gets installed if you selected the spectrum digital content option during install so maybe it was missing from yours.  When the spectrum content is installed there is an EVMDM6437 option in the target configuration tool and when you choose that one it has the GEL file setup automatically, but if the Spectrum content wasn't installed then you would only see the DM6437 entry in the target configuration tool and not the EVM.

    Regards,
