Source code level debugging on Fast Models

Note: This was originally posted on 27th November 2012 at http://forums.arm.com

I'd like to know how I can enable source code debugging with the Fast Model simulator. It allows me to load source code directories, but I don't seem to be able to load any source code files. Does it only enable debugging of actual component code, or can I not also debug what I run *on* the model itself, e.g. application/OS kernel code? Any pointers would be really appreciated.

    You can debug the ARM code running in the simulation (via CADI - using RVD, DS-5, Model Debugger, etc...), or the model code itself (using Visual Studio or GDB).  Which do you want do?

    Debugging both at once can cause problems, as the ARM debugger's connection to the model may time out while you debugging the model itself.

    In terms of the debugging the model source, there is a button in the Fast Model tools GUI that should launch it for you (assuming you're using a support platform).
