CCS: debugging with J-Link

Guru 20755 points

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I would please like to ask why JLinkGDBServer is not required when using CCS debugging with j-link ?

I found the following tutorial which says that for j-link debugging we need to use JLinkGDBServer , so I am not sure what's the difference:

Thank you,

  • Sorry I can't help with your question. But I did want to point out that it's funny that both of us pulled the same picture off the internet to use as our avatar for this forum.
  • Ranran,

    GDB / GDBserver is a very particular debug system that uses open source components and can interface with many IDEs including Code Composer Studio. However, CCS also has a better performing debugger interface that is used by our XDS family of debug probes and Jlink as well - given the performance, this is the preferred use.

    For details about JlinkGDBServer, I suggest you to contact Segger directly.
