Nios II Debug Multiple Threads

Hi 

We've run into a bit of a problem over the last couple of months where we are no longer able to see all of the threads and their current stack/call trace in the NiosII debug window. 

When hitting a breakpoint the debug window always used to list all the threads in our ucosii system, but now only the current thread is getting shown. 

This and numerous other debugger issues are plaguing us at the moment, and making debug near impossible. 

Eg we can quite often get it so that hitting the run button from a breakpoint will just not actually run the program.. or the step over code will just not do anything and leave the system not running and only the pause/ stop buttons are useable.. 

 

Anybody got any ideas as to how to debug the jtag debugger :) 

In the mean time printfs out to a console are becoming the default.. 

and this kind of makes signaltap debugging rather difficult.. 

 

Cheers 

Richard
