Hi,
Is it possible to generate Browse Information using the GCC compiler in Keil? I can't see the option in the target configuration.
Thank you in advance.
I think not - I think the browse info is proprietary?
But, if you're using GCC, why bother with Keil? I find Eclipse has at least as good browsing ...
Hello Luis,
The Keil uVision IDE can work with a GNU compiler.
You can read more about it here:
http://www.keil.com/support/docs/3127.htm
and here:

Once you have that setup, use the Set command to load the debug information into the Keil Debugger:
Make sure you have downloaded the latest version of GCC:
developer.arm.com/.../gnu-rm
Good luck with your project.
Kevin - that doesn't address the specific question about Browse Information.
Sorry to bring up an old thread. I am looking for the same answer. Is it possible to have the browse information feature in Keil MDK when using the GCC compiler?
Having ability to trace the each function or variable definition is quite useful.
I would still give the same answer as 1 year ago.
This. One skill that I think is not often discussed with regard to command-line tools is how to find what you're looking for and ignore the rest. Man pages can be, at 8k+ pages, somewhat intimidating. But after reading enough of them, you invert the approach - instead of thinking you need to read the whole damn thing, just search for keywords pertaining to whatever you're looking to do
