Setting STF register

Bill,

Could you provide more details on exactly how you are trying to read/write to the register? What commands are you currently using?

AartiG,

First, we initialize things by calling the following function:

function InitSim(testName, debug)
{
  if(debug == null)
    Visible = False
  else
    Visible = debug
  
  /* Create debug environment */
  Env = ScriptingEnvironment.instance();

  /* Create script server object and set the configuration */
  Server = Env.getServer("DebugServer.1");
  Server.setConfig(Path + "tms320f283xx_sim.ccxml");

  /* Open the debug session */
  Session = Server.openSession(".*");

  /* Connect to target */
  Session.target.connect();

  /* Open the session so we can start the tests */
  Session = Server.openSession();

  /* Load the test */
  Session.memory.loadProgram(Path + testName + ".out");

  /* Clear all breakpoints */
  Session.breakpoint.removeAll();
}

Path is a variable containing the path to our test area.

We have 2 wrappers used for the registers:

function GetReg(regName)
{
  var value = Session.memory.readRegister(regName)
  
  return(value)
}

function SetReg(value, regName)
{
  Session.memory.writeRegister(regName, value)
}

Calling GetReg and SetReg as follows,

var tempreg new number

tempreg = GetReg("STF")

Print(tempreg)

SetReg(tempreg, "STF")

Print(GetReg("STF"))

gives something like:

tempreg -> 0x225 after first call to GetReg

tempreg -> 0 after call to SetReg and 2nd call to GetReg

Hope this is enough info (by the way, Print is a wrapper function).

Additionally, trying to set STF as follows: Session.memory.writeRegister("STF", 0x225) still results in the STF having a 0 value.

Thanks,

Bill
