I am using Code Composer Studio  version : 5.1.0.201108111000  Build id: N201108111000

I am also using a Stellaris platform 9D96 CPU on a custom board that uses the safeRTOS.

My question is about debugging with breakpoints.  If I set a breakpoint, often times I can not step off the breakpoint with the F6 or by pressing the run button.  I can step with F5 and once the PC (Program Counter) steps off the breakpoint  then F6 and run will work again.  The other option I use to get the CPU to run again is to remove the breakpoint where the PC is and then I can run again with run or F6.  When the breakpoint is in a loop, it appears that hitting run will run through the loop and stop again but if I check the loop counter it doesn’t change.

Is there any chance this can be fixed with a preference in CCS or is this just something I have to live with?
