Object File Symbols

Object File Symbols
The most common way to load program symbols into the logic analyzer
is from an object file that is created when the program is compiled.

Requirements

In order for object file symbols and source code to be accurately
assigned to address values captured by the logic analyzer, you need:
An accurate bus trace
An HP analysis probe is used to capture the microcontroller data.
An inverse assembler
The inverse assembler software is included with HP analysis probes.
The CPU32 inverse assembler decodes captured data into program
counter (PC) addresses (also known as software addresses) and
assembly language mnemonics.
A symbol file
You need an object file containing symbolic debug information in a
format the logic analyzer understands.
Alternatively, you can use a General Purpose ASCII (GPA) symbol file
(see Chapter 11, "General-Purpose ASCII (GPA) Symbol File Format,"
beginning on page 237).
Visible internal cycles
To store internal cycles in the trace, enable Show Cycles (SHEN) in the
Module Configuration Register (MCR).
