"Assembly Step Into" is greyed when integrate CCS with gdb

kang michael

I try to use remote gdb protocol debug the application of CCS. All the functionality look fine except "Assembly Step Into" option is greyed out. Is there any solution for that?

Thanks

There is very little detail here about your debug environment and which target device/board and version of CCS you are using?

Are you following the process in this page to debug a linux process using CCS: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Linux_Debug_in_CCSv5

Another helpful resource is this page: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CCS_Debugging_of_Linux_Applications_with_GDB

It may help to have more details about your debug environment and possibly some screenshots that show exactly what/how you are trying to debug and the grayed out icons.

Hi MK,

The two assembly step buttons in 'CCS Debug' perspective will only be enable for TI Debugger (JTAG). To perform assembly (instruction) stepping in a gdb environment, you will need to switch to the standard 'Debug' perspective and enable 'Instruction Stepping Mode' in the toolbar. Then the regular step buttons will perform assembly stepping.

Regards,
Patrick
