uv4.21 - breakpoint problems

@Marc Crandall

Hello,

I just upgraded to uv 4.21 and after doing this I can't seem to use breakpoints on my project.

(I'm using an LPC1788 development board - Cortex-M3)
(I'm using ULINK Pro)

with version 4.20 and the same code I had no problems with breakpoints but now if I have even 1 before I try and run the code I get the following error:

"This target device does not support all the defined breakpoints!
Please reduce the number of breakpoints and start again."

If I try and add a breakpoint while the application is running I get:

"Operation not possible while the target device is executing.
Please stop the target to perform the operation."

I can stop the execution and step through code but no breakpoints.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

    Hi Ron,

    Thanks for your reply and suggestion.

    I'm using an LPC1788 so yes it access the NOR via the EMC.

    I initialize the EMC at startup before the call to main as follows:

    Reset_Handler   PROC
                EXPORT  Reset_Handler             [WEAK]
                IMPORT  SystemInit
                IMPORT  emc_setup_asm
                IMPORT  __main
                LDR     R0, =SystemInit
                BLX     R0
                LDR     R0, =emc_setup_asm
                BLX     R0
                LDR     R0, =__main
                BX      R0
                ENDP

    I also (redundantly) configure the EMC via a debug/flash program INI file. In any case even if I wait until after the EMC is properly configured I still can not add a breakpoint.
    (Note I can see the disassembly of the NOR)

    I tried the 'BS 0x800000' command as you suggested but I get the same error messages.

    Have you ever encountered this? Am I correct in thinking that I should be able to add breakpoints to the code in external NOR?

    Thanks.
