Nios II IDE Debugger

Hello 

 

I am using the Nios II IDE and the built in debugger to debug some code. To be more precise, I am trying to port the LWIP to the OpenCores MAC solution. I am having problems with the debugger hanging in certain points. In particular it hangs when stepping into functions, which I use a pointer to. I can see the pointer is ok and points to a valid location, but still, the dubugger hangs. 

 

Has anybody had this type of problems ? do you know what can be the cause of such a thing ?

can you send the project to us? 

khallbec@altera.com 

 

we'd just use it to verify the bug, then to test a fix. We can toss it after that.

Hi 

 

Sorry for the hassle, but I found the problem. The SRAM was shard by the packet buffer and the program memory, which is obviously not good (duh).
