    Joe,
    This sounds like a path mapping not properly set. I would first review
    all path mapping for this OCD connection. This is in the target
    connection properties->Object path mapping.
    Hope this helps

    Hi,
    I am using Workbench 3.1 to build and run c++ applications. Recently I
    have been trying to use the On-Chip debug feature of workbench and I
    am having a problem wirth debugging at the source level. I got the
    emulator to connect to the target, set a breakpoint, and when I run
    the application to the correct point I hit the breakpoing. The display brings up a view of the assembly code. I would like to be able to
    debug at the source level. I think what is happening is that the tool
    does not know where the associated source files are (although I use
    the source file to set the breakpoint!). There is a right click menu
    option for "source stepping mode" but when I choose that nothing
    happens. In the help file under "Stepping into Disassembled code" I
    find "This is useful when the instruction pointer enters a function
    for which it does not have the source". I think this is what is
    happening, but I can't find the right place to add my source files so
    that the debugger can find them.

    Anyone have any insight as to what I need to set to get it to
    recognize the source during debugging ?

    Additional information - This is not code that I download using the debugger. The flash boot on the board sets up the hardware and then attaches to another processor and downloads its operational program
    into ram via a shared memory interface. After download we jump to the loaded file in ram. So. The program I am trying to debug is already in
    ram, I set the debugger to attach to the processor without doing a
    reset and things *appear* to work. When i add a breakpoint in the
    source code and then perform the steps that should get me to the breakpoint, it does break.

    Thanks !
    Joe
    Ever find a solution to this??

    Thanks!
