Hello everyone
I was wondering if it's possible to access the "Registers" view in Code Composer studio while not debugging a target? The "Registers" view gives a nice overview of all the registers and the associated bitfields and I think it would be useful to have access to it when writing code.
You can open the Registers view while in the Edit perspective but if there is no active debug session it will be blank. So really the only way to do it would be to keep your debug session while writing code. You could then have something that looked like this:
Here I am in the Edit Perspective but I have the registers view open at the bottom left. Basically instead of terminating the debug session I just clicked on the button at the top right to go back to the Edit perspective.
You could take this a bit further if you don't want the debugger connected and "disconnect" in the debug perspective. This leaves the debugger running but it stops polling the target. This means that you won't see values in the register view but it would still show registers.
To disconnect there is a button in the debug perspective that looks like this:
If you rebuild your application and are still connected CCS will ask you if you want to reload the program.
Regards,
John
