System Analyzer Tutorial 7 - CCSv5.2 Launch Configuration

Here's how to configure a launch in CCSv5.2 that will automatically load the OpenMP project into CPU 0, symbols into all other cores and start System Analyzer:

Configuring the Launch

• Turn off all auto-load options on all cores (needed to avoid using a s/w bkpt to run to main)
• Turn off CIO on all cores (hidden ‘system’ s/w bkpts are used for CIO)

Running the program

• Launch, connect to all cores, group cores CPU 1-7
• load program into CPU 0, and symbols into CPU 1-7
• apply restart to CPUs 1-7 so that they show c_int00 as address in debug view
• Select CPU 0
• Open Breakpoint view, right click on table and select Breakpoint / Hardware Breakpoint, enter main as address.
• Run CPU 0
• Run the group.
• CPU 0 should halt at main.
• HALT the group (so that this version of System analyzer can read the data structures in memory that it needs)
• Start System Analyzer (Tools/System Analyzer/Live -> Start)
• Run the group
• Run CPU 0
