I maintain the code for a controller based on the TMS320R2811. My system uses the boot loader to download the execuable code from a host app, so I need to know how to set breakpoints after the download is done. Someone else, long since gone, did the original development, so I missed that stage of the development. So far, I've been able to get by without a debugger, but those days are over. I am now trying to figure out how to get started with simple debugging (breakpoints and reading and setting variables). I understand that I can order a USB JTAG cable, but then what? Where can I find a good "getting started" guide? My questions are along the lines of "how do I tell Code Composer I have the device hooked up?" "How do I set a breakpoint in code the processor hasn't downloaded yet?" That sort of thing.
I'm using CodeComposer 3.3.82.13, freshly updated today.
