As I read in older posts: the OpenOCD controls and manages the hardware debug interface to a target. Gdb has no knowledge of the specifics of the remote target and OpenOCD functions as a gdb server, receiving and acting on higher level user commands (e.g., breakpoint), and alerting gdb to the occurrence of events (e.g., halting).
I have found that OpenOCD is able to set a software breakpoint replacing the instruction at the breakpoint address with the target processor breakpoint instruction. So far I know the instruction "bp [address length]" will set a breakpoint on code execution starting at 'address' for 'length' bytes. My question is the following, while debugging an ARM target supported by OpenOCD, Is it possible to set breakpoints at high level language? I mean by pointing the breakpoint by file name and code line number? Thanks a lot for your support Best Regards Johan _______________________________________________ Openocd-development mailing list Openocd-development@lists.berlios.de https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/openocd-development
