As any debug implemented +in software, it will have limitation but we are confident that most of them +can be removed by adding separate software components dedicated to debug activity. +We must keep in mind that even with this approach, no software will enable the +debug of code with interrupt entirely masked at processor level and that In +Circuit Emulator (ICE) or use of BDM extension on the target board are the ultimate +way to really debug any portion of an RTOS. BDM support in GDB is still weak +but people are working on it and we may get something better in a near future. + +@example +XXXXX insert process.eps +XXXXX Caption remote debugger tasks and handlers +@end example + |
