CCS5.4: can't set breakpoint in linked files

Hi Stephen,

could you please elaborate a bit further?  What target and emulator are you using?  Have you tried other projects and the latest ccs version (v5.5)?

I am successfully able to set a breakpoint in a linked in c file in v5.5.

Best Regards,

Lisa

Hello Lisa,

I am using the XDS100V2 emulator.   I noticed two new CCS projects were having this problem.  I haven't had time to try any other projects.  It only happens when I am debugging, i.e. I have connected the emulator and downloaded the code to the target.  I am able to add a breakpoint before connecting the emulator and downloading the code to the target.

The target is a TMS320F28335. 

Hello Lisa,

I am trying to install CCSv55.  Why does the custom installation requires me to select all or none of processor architectures.  Also, a warning is displayed if I don't select any processor architecture.  The warning says:

"Your CCS install has already been updated to included newer components.  This CCS installer cannot be used to add processor support because it does not include those components."

Why am I not able to just install C28x 32-bit Real-time MCUs?

Hello Lisa,

Changing to CCSv5.5 fixed the issue.

Thanks,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

great, very glad to hear.  All the best with development.

Hello Lisa,

I am having the issue again.  Now its happening with a file that not linked. 

The breakpoint is getting set as disabled and when I try to enable the breakpoint in the Breakpoint window a dialog box pops up saying "No code is associated with ..."

Disregard my last post.  I had commented out the call to the function I was trying to put a breakpoint in.
