Re: JTAG debugging tools

2005-12-10 by householder_lpc

Thank you for a very clear and comprehensive answer. 

It it so that, if you use Crossworks, you don't use OCDRemote anymore,
so Crossworks bitbangs jtag commands over LPT1 itself? Because
OCDRemote doesn't support hardware breakpoints... 

Can Crossworks set as many breakpoints in Flash as you want? Are these
software breakpoints, or hardware breakpoints? 

Thank you !!
