Need help with the watching of assembly variables in the watch window

Sachin Madhusoodhanan

Hi,

 

I need help with the watching of assembly variables in the watch window. I am writing an assembly program for TMS320LF2407 in CCS 3.3. I want to watch my assembly variables in the watch window and edit it in real time when the program is running. I am new to this and so struggling. I know how to do this with C-programming. But not sure on how to do this with assembly programming for assembly variables.

Please help me with this anyone. Any help is appreciated.

    Hi Sachin,

    Please refer this doc:

    It says: http://www.ti.com/lit/ug/spru509h/spru509h.pdf

    The watch window allows you to monitor the values of local and global variables and C/C++ expressions

    Instead you can make use of Register Window, to monitor the register values.

    Regards,

    Gautam

    Do you have the variables defined as .global? I assume you already refered to this thread for informaiton on how to reference assembly variables in the watch window.

    Alternately are you able to look up the address of .bss in a memory view and see the values for the variables? You should be able to find the memory address for .bss by looking at the link map file for your project.
