3.4.4 Unloading an image
You do not have to unload an image from a debug target before loading a new image for
execution. Display the Load File to Target dialog box and ensure that the Replace
Existing File(s) check box is selected ready to load the next image.
However, you might want to unload an image explicitly as part of your debugging
session, for example if you correct coding errors and then rebuild outside RealView
Debugger. You can do this using the Process Control pane:
1. Select ViewPane Views Process Control Pane from the default Code
window main menu.
2. Right-click on the
Image
entry, for example
dhrystone.axf
, or on the
Load
entry,
Image+Symbols
, to display the Image context menu.
3. Select Unload.
You can also unload an image by clicking on the check box associated with the
Load
entry so that it is unselected.
Unloading an image does not affect target memory. It unloads the symbols and removes
most of the image details from RealView Debugger. However, the image name is
retained.
Note
To remove image details completely, right-click on the
Image
entry in the Process
Control pane and select Delete Entry.
