RTOS operation is controlled by the RTOS settings
group in the Advanced_Information block in your
current board file. Select File → Connection → Connection Properties... to
display the Connection Properties window where you can configure these
settings, shown in Figure 19.1.
Note
You do not have to configure these options if your RTOS vendor
has supplied an RTOS specific *.bcd file.
There are descriptions of the general layout and controls of the RealView Debugger settings windows, which include the Connection Properties window, in the RealView Debugger online help topic Changing Settings.
Note
Do not configure the board file with the debugger connected to a target.
The RTOS group contains the settings:
- Vendor
Selects the type of RTOS that the application is using. This is an enumerated value that selects the RTOS you are using from the installed support libraries.
- Load_when
Selects when the debugger loads the RTOS support library for your RTOS. The RTOS features of the debugger are not enabled until the RTOS support library has found the RTOS on your target, and this might mean that you must run the image startup code. When the DLL is loaded, it can:
check immediately for the RTOS, with
Load_whenset toconnectwait until an image is loaded before checking for the RTOS, with
Load_whenset toimage_load.
See the documentation for the RTOS support library for more details.
- Base_address
Defines a base address, overriding the default address used to locate the RTOS data structures. See the documentation for your specific RTOS support code.
