Hi Murray,

I have had troubles getting PDB38M to display source correctly, unless the hex/sym files came from the SRA74 assembler/linker.

When I used IAR C compiler to produce a ubrof5 output file, then ran that thru the ubr2sym converter to get hex&sym files, the source would not display.  I copied you on some emails to IAR support about this, but never did get it resolved.  I suggest you continue to talk to IAR support to get them to fix what is wrong.  Ubr2sym did work fine with earlier versions of the compiler.

Otherwise, the CSPY simulator from IAR will attach to the T-PAC emulator, allowing real debugging.  This option will cost the customer more, as the software interface developed for CSPY to communicate to the T-PAC costs extra, but on the positive side, IAR definintely supports it.

I have also ran PDB38M on my Windows 2000 computer and it works fine.

PDB38M is only at version 1.00, as it is an old program, that has not been updated like PD38 has.

 

There is no problem with PD38.  Just need to output a IEE695 format file and be sure the correct option is in the linker command file.

Also make sure that the correct linker command file (.xcl) is tied to the project and not the default.

 

Hope this helps.
