GHS toolchain project in debug configuration

leekate-b45752 — Wed, 10 Jun 2020 06:56:52 GMT

Hello,

Could you help to add the GHS toolchain project in debug configuration?

Create a project as below.

There is no Native information tab, so configured Dwarf in the Alternative information tab.

There is no ghs_test project in debug configuration even though the project finished building.

FYI, User is using S32DS for ARM 2018.R1.

Best regards,

Kate Lee

Hi Kate,

If I understand it correctly - you like add Debug Configration for PE Micro or Segger J-Link, right? By default - project with GHS compiler can be debugged only with Lauterbach.

Unfortunately - both probes (PE Micro/J-Link) doesn't fully support GHS elf format and there are some limitations (don't know which ones right now - but I'll try find it). But debugging is possible.

Open Debug Configurations -> Right click on GDB PEMicro Interface Debugging -> New:

Add elf from project:

and select device:

Hope it helps.

Hello Jiri,

When I build the project, elf file didn't generate as below, is it a normal symptom?

Best regards,

Hi Kate,

So, you are missing build target, correct? Unfortunately I don't have GHS license. Can you please share full wide output from build console? It looks, that .elf executable just don't have .elf extension. Is in Debug folder ghs_test file without extension?
