EVM C Source Debugger

• EVM C source debugger - The EVM debugger is an advanced programmer's interface that helps in program development, testing and refinement. With a Windows®-oriented interface, the debugger works on programs in C, assembly language or both.

The EVM C source debugger is an advanced programmer's interface that helps designers develop, test and refine 'C62x C programs and assembly language programs. The debugger is the interface to the 'C62x simulator and the scan-based emulator. The EVM C source debugging interface improves productivity by allowing designers to debug a program in the language in which it was written. Designers can choose from C, assembly language, serial assembly or all three. Context-sensitive online help can be accessed at any time during the debugging process to explain the functions of the windows, dialog boxes and menus of the debugger interface.

Features of the debugger include:

• Powerful commands - Does not require learning a large, intricate command set.
• Multilevel debugging - Allows debugging in both C and assembly code.
• Fully configurable graphical user interface - The debugger uses an intuitive Windows® interface that separates code, data and commands into manageable sections.
• Comprehensive data displays - Allows easy creation of windows for displaying and editing the values of variables, arrays, structures, pointers or other data in their natural form.
• On-screen editing - Designers can change any data value displayed in any window.
• Automatic update - Automatically updates information on the screen, highlighting changed values.
• Flexible command entry - Allows various ways to enter commands, including menu options and dialog boxes, toolbar icons or using function keys as shortcuts.
• Dynamic profiling - An addition to the basic debugging environment, the profiling environment provides a method for collecting execution statistics about specific areas in the code. Provides immediate feedback on the application's performance and helps to identify bottlenecks within the code.
