Help with using the debug feature
PostPosted: Wed Nov 07, 2018 12:05 pm     Reply with quote
Is it possible to debug the code without using a 'ICD programmer' or simply no programmer connected at all?
All I want to do is put breakpoints in my code and see if the function is being executed or not.
I tried to put '#device ICD=true' in my code and it allows me to Enable Debugging and browse the debug windows, but doesn't allow me set breakpoints. I cannot find the 'ICD-USB driver' in the Device Manager. I tried to re-install the drivers again from the website, but still cannot see them in the Device Manager.
If a programmer needs to be connected for debugging, is it possible to use the 'melabs U2 programmer' and debug the code?

Put in a printf or a putc statement. If you see 'A' displayed on TeraTerm
then you know it executed the function. Example:
Code:
void my_function(void)
{
putc('A');
.
.
.
.

}
