GDB is included in many IDEs and most commonly used in connection with the GCC

compiler toolchain. This chapter shows how to configure some programs to use GDB

and connect to GDB Server. For more information about any program using GDB,

please refer to its user manual.

emIDE

emIDE is a full-featured, free and open source IDE for embedded development

including support for debugging with J-Link.

To connect to GDB Server with emIDE, the GDB Server configurations need to be set

in the project options at Project -> Properties... -> Debugger.

Select the target device you are using, the target connection, endianess and speed

and enter the additional GDB start commands.

The typically required GDB commands are:

#Initially reset the target

monitor reset

#Load the application

load

Other commands to set up the target (e.g. Set PC to RAM, initialize external flashes)

can be entered here, too.

emIDE will automatically start GDB Server on start of the debug session. If it does

not, or an older version of GDB Server starts, in emIDE click on JLink -> Run the

JLink-plugin configuration.
