3.1 Starting RealView Debugger
To start your debugging session, you must complete the following steps:
1. Start RealView Debugger.
2. Connect to your chosen debug target.
3. Load an image for debugging.
This section describes how to start RealView Debugger and display the default Code
window. It contains the following sections:
•Starting RealView Debugger
•The Code window.
3.1.1 Starting RealView Debugger
To start RealView Debugger:
1. Select Start→ Programs → RealView Debugger v1.6 from the Windows Start
menu.
2. Select RealView Debugger from the menu.
The first time you run RealView Debugger after installation, it creates a unique working
directory, in your RealView Debugger home directory, for you to store your personal
files, debugger settings, and target configuration files. RealView Debugger then creates
or copies files into this directory ready for your first debugging session.
If a user ID is not specified then RealView Debugger creates a general-purpose working
directory called
install_directory\home\owner
.
3.1.2 The Code window
Starting RealView Debugger immediately after installation displays the default Code
window to provide a starting point for all debugging tasks. The Code window is your
main debugging and editing window. This is shown in Figure 3-1 on page 3-3.
