[SIZE=2][FONT=Tahoma]To summarise: Can the free IDE debug code larger than the 128K limit providing that any flash loading (by the debugger) is not attempted?
   
  [/FONT][/SIZE][SIZE=2][FONT=Tahoma]I fully understand the download size limitation with the free version of the LPCXpresso IDE.

I am using a (custom) boot loader scenario where the boot loader is only 8K or so which programs application code (potentially larger than 128K) into a separate area of flash.

Is is still possible to use the free version of LPCXpresso to debug this large application in flash provided that the launch config option 'load' is false. I.e. if I do not attempt to use the IDE to program the separate appliction?

[I have seen the FAQ page about debugging through a boot loader.]

Cheers, Mike

Are the larger (paid for) IDE's exactly the same version as the free, but with bigger allowances?



No - they have more functionality, such as Red Trace, as well as larger code sizes.

A good starting point for more information is...

No. The 128k limit if for download and debug.
