The Debug Options configure how the project should be debugged, which debug interface (J-Link, GDB Server, Simulator) should be used, and how the target should be configured on certain operations.
Contents

GDB Server
The GDB Server Options configure how to connect to a GDB Server and how to handle it. these options apply only when "GDB Server" is selected as "Target Connection".
Options | Values | Description |
---|---|---|
Host | string, Default: localhost | The hostname or IP of the GDB Server to connect to. |
Type | J-Link, OpenOCD, ST-Link, Custom | The type of GDB Server being connected to. |
GDB Server Command Line | string | The command line to start GDB Server. |
Auto Start GDB Server | Yes, No | Specifies whether GDB Server is started by Embedded Studio on connect or assumed to be already running. |
Port | number | The portnumber of the GDB Server to connect to. |
Reset and Stop Command | string, automatically set for known GDB Servers. | The remote GDB Server command to use to reset and stop the target. |
Ignore Checksum Errors | Yes, No, automatically set for known GDB Servers. | Specifies whether an incorrect GBD communication checksum causes an error. Workaround for ST-Link GDB Server. |
Allow Memory Access During Execution | Yes, No, automatically set for known GDB Servers. | Specifies whether memory can be accessed while target is running. If No, target will be stopped for each memory access. |
Log File | filepath | Specifies a file to output the log of GDB Server communication to. |
Target XML File | filepath | If set, use this file instead of the target.xml returned by GDB Server. |
Connect Timeout | number | The length of time in secconds to attempt to connect to server before failing. |

Loader
The Loader Options configure which application file and additional files to program to the target device on debug.
Target Control
Additional Options for checks when debugging on a target.
Target Script
The Target Scrip Options configure script functions to be executed on certain debug operations.
Target Trace
The Target Trace Options configure which trace interface to use and how to initialize trace on the target device.
