When I set a breakpoint in gdb (b file:nr), gdb just records this internally and doesn't do anything with the target. Only upon step or cont it will set the breakpoint in the hardware. But we need the possibility to immediately set any breakpoint, even if it's for another not-halted thread. Is this possible with some gdb commands (like set PC) or would I need to change the code (break flush :) .. ok, better name it break apply... or set break apply 1) ? Thanks bye Fabi
