How to download and debug program without erasing whole flash?

Hi,

I am new to CCS4 (previously I have been using IAR). I would like to know if CCS4 can download and debug my program and erasing only the necessary flash pages (instead of erasing whole flash)?

In addition, is it possible to debug without re-downloading the program?

FYI, I am using EKS-LM3S1968. 


Best regards,

    There are a number of flash options in the on-chip flash options page (opened from the Tools menu). Using these options you can select a specific memory range to erase, for example.

    To debug without re-downloading and re-flashing the program, you can launch a debug session on the device and then load the symbols. To launch the debug session, you and use the "debug launch" button on the tool bar or right click on the .ccxml file and select "launch selected configuration" from the menu. Once the debug session is, up connected to the target using the connect button in the toolbar. Then, load the symbols using the menu item in the target menu.
