Grant, Thanks for the quick reply.
After the eclipse "pause button" is pressed, communication with GDB is gone. It eventually times out and gives a communication error dialog box. However when I check my msp430-gdbproxy bash console window, It is still spitting out commands as if it was still connected to a gdb process. The only way I seem to get control is to stop the gdbproxy (ctrl-c), remove the terminated processes in eclipse and start over. This may not be the same problem you had, as my gdbproxy still seems to think it is connected and talking to someone. Good Huntin' cb Chris Balthrop Sr. Engineer Micro Technology Services Inc.
