µVISION DEBUGGER: SOURCE LEVEL DEBUGGING WITH GNU ARM

Information in this article applies to:

• GNU ARM Compiler
• µVision Version 3.00

QUESTION

I have a complex project with several source folders that I build with the GNU ARM compiler. In this situation source-level debugging fails. How can I solve this issue?

ANSWER

The GNU ARM Compiler does not store path information in the ELF/DWARF file. Therefore, you must manually specify the path names for your source files using the µVision debugger SET SRC command. For example:

set src=C:\Projects\MyFolder
set src="C:\\Controller Projects\\PRJ A\\src"

If you have problems with variable display you may need to update the SARM.DLL. Download the attachment and copy the file to the folder Keil\ARM\BIN.
