Hi,
I'm using S32DS 2018.R1 (180815) with the S32K148 EVB.
I'm doing some preliminary tests using FlexRAM. I followed some examples and threads found here in the NXP community.
I think I've setup all the settings as needed, but I can't get the "Preserve range" option to work.
In the debugger setup, option "Emergency Kinetis Device Recovery by Full Chip Erased" is unchecked.
In the Advanced options, Preserve memory range 0 is active and specifies the range 10000000 - 1000FFFF. As a workaround, in a separate test I also tried to specify the same range in Memory range 1, to no avail.
But when I launch the debug, if the code changed, the full device is erased (expected behavior would be to keep the eeprom part untouched). If the code doesn't change, everything works as it should.
However, it seems that the debugger doesn't even try to preserve memory, as I can't read the "Preserving data range $10000000-$1000FFFF before erase ..." message anywhere, as I read in other messages about the same topic:

I'm using the latest .arp file downloaded from the PEMicro website.
I also played with "Preserve partitioning for the device" option, again to no avail.
Probably I am missing something here.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks,
