OpenOCD - Global Variable misses

[duracell]

Hi everybody,


I am using chibistudio and OpenOCD for debugging purpose.

I have a small problem and I think that I am not the only one: sometimes, I do not find the variable I am looking for in the global variables list.

I am sure the variable I am searching is a global variable. I often I have this problem, the most of the times the variable appears after having closed and reopened Chibistudio, other times I create a similar variable with a similar name and it appears. Sometimes I am not able to make this variable appear in the list


Some of you sorted out this problem?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

Try reindexing the project then you may try compiling with -O0 and see if it is an optimization problem.

Thank you again Giovanni.

I just compiled with O0 and I found the variables I was looking for.


P.S.
I came back to O2 and the variables are still there!

Hi,

I have again the same problem and this time I am not able to sort it out. The global variable list of OCD debugger does not contain all the global variables.


I have tried to open- re-open, clear, copy the project in a new project, change optimization, I have changed the board (with one equal).... but nothing, the variable list is alway the same.

I have also tried to use a variable, that was in the list, in a new position, but as I launched again the debugger could no loger find it.


Any suggestion?
