The basic steps are: 

 

(1) Build your app using -O0 and -g compiler flags 

(2) Ensure that you build the <app>.gdb target 

(3) upload <app>.exe to your development board 

(4) run the following command from within Nios II Linux 

 

# debug <app> 

 

(5) create and run a Nios II Linux application debug configuration from within the Nios II IDE
