Hello,

we use Freemaster with an S32K358, it's a multicore project.

Each core have a software and a map file.

I don't find in Freemaster how to select 2 maps file to access variables of each core/ software .

So how can I do that ? if not how can we use Freemaster on multicore with 2 software ?

thank you

Sophie

Hello, 

FreeMASTER can only communicate to one target. This is similar to multi-processor setup, you can run multiple instances of FreeMASTERs and each can may communicate with one target core. Each core shall use a different serial port or different CAN frame identifiers.

In case you use a JTAG direct memory access, you could theoretically observe both operational memory areas used by the two cores using a single FreeMASTER session - in this case you need a mechanism how to join the two map files into one and parse it with a Regular expression parser. Unfortunately, FreeMASTER has no built-in support to simplify this task.

Regards,
Michal
