Is there a way to print the content big ammouts of memory (i.e. all the external RAM) using CCS

James Thorton

Hello,

what I would like to do is to see for instance, see the content of 2 MB of my ram. With CCS you can see it in windows and in small ammounts (I mean, just the what the window allow you to see due to its size) and you can desplace it through it, but not very fast. I would like to save all this 2MB in a txt or something. I was thinking to do a little program and loading it in another place, and this program will show in the CCS console all I want to see of my memory, but I was wondering if there is a better option using CCS

Best regards and thank you in advance

Hi James,

If you are using CCSv4, the memory view supports saving the contents of a range of memory to a file (*.dat and binary formats supported). See this Quick Tip

If you are using CCSv3, there is a utility for saving memory to binary file but this is supported on ARM targets. But you have the option to save as a *.dat file for all targets. See the CCS online help for more information.

Thanks

The CCS menu File->Data->Save will allow you to save a range of memory to a COFF or CCS data file format file. Please refer to the CCS Online Help section titled "Saving and Loading a Data File".
