RT1050 MCUXpresso GDB Error

[ryanshuttlewort]

Hello, I am trying to debug a simple hello world application on the MIMXRT1050-EVK using the MCUXpresso IDE.  Please see my previous post.

As of yesterday, Nov 16th, 2017 it appears that the RT1050 SDK now supports MCUXpresso IDE.  I am able to import and compile the simple hello world application, however, when I attempt to download and debug I get the GDB error shown below. 

Notes:

• I am having no issue compiling, downloading and debugging from IAR on the same board.
• MCUXpresso is running on Ubuntu 14.04

Initial error message:

Any insight into how to correct the issue would be appreciated, thanks.

An update for anyone having this issue. It seems that this issue is specific to the RT1050 and MCUXpresso v10.0.2, upgrading to v10.1.0 has corrected this issue.  Unfortunately the v10.0.2 "Check for updates" feature doesn't seem to be functional as it reports that no updates are available.  I had to download the latest MCUXpresso version and re-install.

Thanks Ryan,

            Changing the IDE helped.
