CCS6.1 - DEBUG-- VARIABLES --- please see the screen shot, below. Sorry, its pretty small.
The software is simple, it is from TI's SLAA393c 'advanced debugging examples' Example 1. Imported C text into CCS6.1.
Of course, DEBUG was stopped, then single-stepped ......
(1) How to display Global Variable ??
I wish to see volatile uint16_t wLoopCounter = 0; in the list, and eventually change it, etc. but the 'ADD GLOBAL VARIABLES' button is greyed out. (5th from left, starting at 'Show Type Names') I can see this global variable if I hover over it in the C-code -- and even change it --> but this is awkward as it of course disappears when I move the mouse away.
So..... How to display a Global Variable in debug, in the list, please?
(2) how to (consistently) change a local variable. (I think not too important question !!!)
The point here is the help documentation (left screen / right side) doesn't accurately say what to do. I determined via trial / error:
The loop variable volatile uint16_t count = 0; is seen in the list. It seems the only way I could change COUNT is:
(A) to make the list view 'COLUMNS' ... double click VALUE .... edit that value
(B) in the C-code... hover over the variable name COUNT box comes up ... click/edit the value in the box.
