CCS/AMIC110: Real time emulation and graphic view

Part Number: AMIC110

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

It appears that older version of CCS supports real time emulation and graphic view for C2000 - 

However the real time debug with DAP for ARM processor is limited to memory access only  - 

Is there any way in CCS to turn on the real time debug and graphic view for ARM processor as for C2000? If not, can we plan to add it to the next release of CCS? This is a very useful feature for ARM processor targeted to industrial application.

Thanks,

Garrett

    The real-time debug feature on C2000 is enabled through special hardware (ICEMaker) which is not available on ARM. Real-time debug on ARM is limited to memory access due to hardware limitations unfortunately, not due to lack of support from CCS.

    Hi,

    What's the major difference between the C2000's special hardware and the ARM's DAP? As the memory can be accessed in real time through DAP, would it be possible to associate with the symbols of a .out file then display variables in CCS?

    Thanks,
    Garrett

    For this device, you would need to explicitly access the memory via the DAP. So you can monitor variables by finding their memory address and adding it to the memory browser, but not by symbol name.

    Here is a related thread on this topic for the same device.

    This wiki page has some additional information on debug capabilities by device.
