A board/chip definition can reference one or more BOARD, CHIP,
or COMPONENT groups from other board/chip definitions.
In this way, you can build up an extended view of your development platform
from other components.
To assign a board/chip definition to another board/chip definition:
Select Target → Connection Properties... from the Code window main menu to open the Connection Properties window.
Expand the (*.bcd) Board/Chip Definitions group
to show the current list of BCD files.
Select the required board/chip definition to which you want to assign another board/chip definition.
Right-click on the BoardChip_name setting
in the right pane to display the context menu.
Select the name of the required board/chip definition from the context menu.
You might have to select <More...> from the context menu to find the name you require.
For example, select KS32C50100. A new setting is added to the right pane with an asterisk * beside it. Figure 4.13 shows an example:
Select File → Save and Close from the menu to save your changes and close the Connection Properties window.
When you connect to a target using this Debug Configuration, the settings defined in the assigned board/chip definition are applied to that connection. Therefore, RealView Debugger is able to access the areas of your development platform as defined in that board/chip definition.
Ignore any duplicate, overlapping memory, or register not found warning messages that are displayed when you connect.
