Abort(Redboot-GDB) doesn't work

I use and check Redboot-GDB debugging. Step and Continue function seemed fine. but Abort doesn't work.(Program doesn't stop with stop button. ) 

I monitored communication line that GDB(nios2-elf-insight) send stop-code(Ctrl-c) to the NIOS(redboot). Tested application program is builded with Nios‡U IDE and not eCos-based application program. 

 

Does anybudy have any idea ? http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif

Use of ctrl-C requires that the application being debugged is using the Redboot interrupt stubs. This will only happen if the application being debugged is eCos based.
