CCS/CODECOMPOSER: Source lookup path not working in CCSv7

Part Number: CODECOMPOSER

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I am facing issues in debugging library source files. The library is a static library. This is linked from an RTSC application. I have put breakpoints in the library source (using disassembly) and when it is hit i get the option to "View Disassembly" only in CCS . "Locate file" option is not present .

I tried adding the" source lookup path" in CCS as explained here http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Debug_Handbook_for_CCS#Debugging_Library_code. But this didnt help. Both the application and library is build in Debug mode. Any help here is appreciated

Regards,

Prajith,

I suspect that you may either be using highly optimized code or the debug information was somehow lost in the process.

You can take a look at the .map file of your project and see if you can find the functions and symbols that are build inside the library.

Or you can try to find the function information by using the cg_xml scripts package - a utility called func_info shows the function information. The package can be obtained at:
processors.wiki.ti.com/.../Code_Generation_Tools_XML_Processing_Scripts

Ultimately you could share the project and which symbols you are trying to look.

Regards,
Rafael

Hi Rafael,

The issue was due to "Generate debug info" option not checked in project settings. Once this is done i am able to debug. Thanks for your reply.
