Hello Guys!

I've discovered a strange thing in LPCXpresso v7.0.0 [Build 92] [2014-02-20] (on Windows 7). My problem is the following:
[list=1]
  [*]My project is working, I can debug my code. Everything works fine.
  [*]I can build the project, it is even downloaded into the controller but I cannot debug my code because "arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe has stopped working" (LPC1549 in this case, but I've experienced this with LPC1769 too).
  [*]I create a new project, import the old one, which failed at debug. I start a debug session and it works fine again. The interesting part is if I deleted the old project and rename the new one to the old one's name. It fails at debug again. That's why I think some project or meta files are stucked in the project somehow.
[/list]


Is there a solution to bypass this create new project, import the old one, delete the old one part? It kills my version controlling.

Almost certainly this is because you have breakpoints set on unused code (code that is being discarded by the linker as it is not used).

If this happens:
- delete ALL of your breakpoints (do it from the Breakpoints view) and then try again
- upgrade to latest version, where this is improved (but not yet fixed)
