  • Dimple,

    As i understand you want to add the variable which you have in the watch window with some data !!!(hope i undestood correctly?)

    if you dont need to add the value mannually,why dont you try in the program sequence itself?

    Thanks,
    Paul

    NB:Dimple,If you share what is your application,it may be helpful to answer question in less time.

    One more thing , i tried your question ,always i got zero in watch window(Variable values)

  • let me write question again..

    I have defined a global variable (whatever is the application!). In debug mode, i add this variable in watch window.now i exit debug mode and i renter debug mode. when i reenter, the varible does not remain in watch window at all (here i am not talking about what value the variable contains). here i need to add the same varible again(by pressing F2 and writing its name).

    For me this is the case when i use ulink debugger.

    but its not d problem when i use simulator as a target.

    now did u understand or i m not able to make you understand my problem?

    Thanks,
    Dimple

  • Dimple,

    apologise for misunderstanding your question!

    Yes! Now Understood your quiery

    i have not worked with the debugger still .But i can tell you WRT Visual DSP ++ 3.5(ADSP-2184L Processor). It not possible their because the app is clearing the data before its connecting to the processor .
    Hope you are also facing the same in Microchip (uVision).i can tell you this authentically by next week ,because my devolopment board & debugger is going to come next week.

    thanks,
    Paul

  • Have you selected to restore variables on re-entry to the debug session?

    Options for Target->Restore Debug Session Settings->Watchpoints should be checked.

  • yes its true when i use simulator or debugger (and load code in flash from 0x000000000).

    but when i load code in RAM (from 0x40000000) Watchpoint checkbox checked doesnt make any difference!!!

    Thanks,
    Dimple.

  • Write a .INI file that sets-up the required watches, and specify this to be run whenever you start the debugger.

  • can you please tell me how exectly i can write .ini file for debugger??? i dont know how to do it!!

    Thanks,
