Debug on a microcontroller [message #1384708]

Hi

I have embedded Lua in a ARM based microcontroller platform. The OS is E-Force UC3.
How do I setup IDT to debug scripts running in that embedded Lua. Is there a tutorial that explains how this might work?

Thanks

Hi Jim,

Sorry for the late response.

We haven't tested to debug on top of an ARM microcontroller, but on the paper it's possible.

You should use the attach session debug configuration: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Koneki/LDT/Developer_Area/User_Guides/User_Guide_1.1#Attach_session

Your microcontroller board must fulfill following requirements:
- have a tcp/ip stack
- have an unix (or windows Very Happy

) style file system
- have a functional LuaSocket installed (https://github.com/diegonehab/luasocket)

if your board is reachable using SSH you can also do remote session debug configuration, which is a bit easier to use: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Koneki/LDT/Developer_Area/User_Guides/User_Guide_1.1#Remote_session

Feel free to share with the community if you succeed ! or any question/issues.

Marc
