No changes on all my global variables in CW V4.6?

[Pang]

Hi Everyone,

I got a problem with the debugger True-Time Simulation in CW 4.6 (30 day Trial Version). When step in, I can not see any changes on all my global variables declared as followed:

file1.c

unsigned long RamPtr;

file2.c

extern unsigned long RamPtr;

I was unable to see  a change on this variable (in Registers, the value of this variable is changed indeed). Why no display updated automatically? the locals in Data:2 window, work fine.

Thanks a lot for any inputs.

Please provide more informtion. Normally especially global variables are correctly displayed, so there must be something special in your setup. Try a simple wizard generated project, if it failes, post it here so we see the complete sources.
Also a bitmap showing what you see with some comments what you expect may help. Are your globals actually used?
