[ECOS] GDB does not stop at breakpoint

[ECOS] GDB does not stop at breakpoint

[Carlos Losada]

I previously had a problem with GDB stopping randomly,
and now I have the inverse problem; it does not stop
at all.  Th setup includes RedBoot installed as a ROM
Monitor in Flash with GDB stubs in HAL activated, and
an application compiled to work with a rom monitor.  

The RedBoot CLI works fine.  Using Eclipse/CDT I can
download the application through the serial port, but
GDB does not stop at the breakpoint.  In fact, it does
not appear to execute the program at all.

Is it an eCos configuration problem?

Re: [ECOS] GDB does not stop at breakpoint

Where are you setting your initial breakpoint?  Make sure you set a
break point at cyg_start() or cyg_user_start() (anywhere during init
before your code executes) to make sure that your code is not
effecting the GDB connection.  I would attempt running one of the
examples/tests as well.

Which HAL are you using?

How are you building your eCos kernel library (packages, settings, etc.) ?

If you don't have asserts turned on, I would turn them on in your
kernel configuration.   They are a very handy debugging tool.
