Can ARM DS-5 debugger debug 2-core with different images via FVP?

I am trying to develop an app that requires the communication between two cores. My question is, I have built two different images for two different cores (Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M4)  in axf format. I also have FVP model that includes two cores (Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M4).  My question is if I can use DS-5 debugger to run the two images (axf file) and debug them after I import the FVP model to DS-5?

Thank you for your input in advance.

  • Hi Joe,

    Thank you very much for your reply. You are right, I can establish two connections in DS-5 debugger. But, each connection is run one at a time, what I mean is they cannot be run in parallel as real two-core system does. I am doing something like inter-core communication. So, the timing will be off by running one core first and the other core second. I am not sure if I make myself clear. By using the debugger, some real cases cannot be reproduced. Do you agree?
