The Symbolic Debugger

The GCC-1750 symbolic debugger is based on the GNU debugger GDB, and supports all the GDB features that are useful for an embedded system. The instruction set simulator is built in as the default executable target. This means that 1750 programs can be run and debugged on the host computer where comparatively powerful low-level debugging aids are available.

Debug commands include single stepping through/over statements/instructions, breakpoints and watchpoints, print and modify variables, examine types, write log file etc.

The debugger also supports a host-target link using either a RS232 serial interface or a network connection. In this case the target computer must be equipped with a suitable communications software. GCC-1750 includes a debug monitor that may be customized for your target.
