CodeWarrior --> simulation s12dp256b

[bakair]

hello all

i'm trying to simulate my application on the code warrior simulator for s12dp256 and i'm facing some problems with my memory configuration. It seems that my prm entries are not taken as expected (please see prm file below). Did I forget to set any additional preference in my simulation, or in general has anyone ever had the some problem?

What's the problem you actually have when debugging?

There is a memory configuration dialog which can be used  to setup the available memory in the simulator too.
By default it simulates all the used memory out of the ELF file.

Compared to the vanilla Full_Chip_Simulation.prm CW generates for the S12DP256B part, you've got a lot of changes in there. Nothing wrong with that, other than without other information on these other parts, I don't know how valid those entries are. Also, it's not clear what problems you are having. Is the "download" to the simulator giving you errors? Or does it just not run? If it's the latter, check the last several lines of your prm file. You should either have the statement VECTOR 0 _Startup (C language program) or VECTOR 0 Entry and INIT Entry (assembly language program) uncommented so that on a virtual reset, the emulator can find your program's starting point.
