Sahana Damale, Ningareddy Modase, Neelima B . GDB Debugger Tool for Microcontroller. International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies. ICICT, 5 (October 2014), 23-25.
Debugger is the most essential tool to assist programmer and increase productivity. This paper presents the list of features that are not available in GDB hardware debugger plug-in provided by Eclipse and proposes solution to have those features for debugging Infineon Microcontrollers. Features such as Reset method and Special Function Register view are not available in the GDB Eclipse plug-in. Also memory view in the debug perspective often fails to access certain memory ranges and does not display the selected memory locations.
