Issues debugging project after porting from CodeWarrior 10.2 to 11.1

[lpeterso]

Hi, I have recently been tasked with porting an old classic CodeWarrior project made for MCF51JM128 ColdFire v1 to CodeWarrior 11.1. I have been using the trial version of 11.1 to port the project, and we are interested in purchasing a license for 11.1 if we can get the project ported successfully.

I have followed this guide: http://cache.freescale.com/files/soft_dev_tools/doc/app_note/AN4727.pdf to port the project. After following these steps, I was getting build errors from unidentified references to “_BDT_BASE” and “_IPSBAR”. I noticed that these definitions were in the linker file of the old project, so I copied them to the linker file in the new project. After that, the project built successfully, and I was able to flash it. However, It would throw exceptions every time I would debug it.

These missing definitions seem to be USB related, and I am wondering if adding them from the old linker file has created more issues. Also, the project worked without issues on 10.2

Just to recap:

Followed guide to port from 10.2 to 11.1

Copied missing linker definitions to 11.1 project

Successfully built and flashed

Getting exception error when I start to debug

Any insight provided on this issue would be great,

Thanks.

Hi Felipe, thanks for responding to me. I actually found that the issue was in the project setup. I needed to enable console support

Hello Landon,

Please accept my apologies for my late reply.

Could you please be more specific regarding the issue you are facing? Maybe a snippet of what you see.

In addition, please check the document attached about linker file for ColdFire devices.

Best regards,

Felipe
