breakpoints using CCS V4 MSP430F2618 - Large memory model

Started by uzbee1 August 28, 2010
Hello:

I am working on a project with the MSP430F2618 using the code composer V4 software. I just raninto the 64k barrier with my code and switch to the large memory model (C compiler option).

I noticed that the debugger cannot handle breakpoints above the address of 0x10000.
When debugging code I have a breakpoint set to a function at address 0x13bf2. The debugger will stop at 0x03bf2. Seems like their is an architectural program with the debuggin software handling addresses above 0xFFFF.
Has anyone seen this? Does anyone know if the IAR or Rowley tools handling debugging / breakpoints in the space above 64k?
Also, I am using the MSP FET tool.

I can only speak for IAR, but we can handle breakpoints everywhere in
memory.
