6.1. About viewing OS resources

You view OS resources using the Resource Viewer (see Figure 6.1). The Resource Viewer contains the Resources list, which displays all the resources available to view in RealView® Debugger.

With an OS application loaded, OS-specific tabs are added to the Resource Viewer to display the processes or threads that are configured.

In this release, the Debug Agent handles up to 64 threads and the Resources list shows all the threads on the system. This display differs from the thread list where threads that are not under the control of RealView Debugger are grayed out.

Other tabs might be included to support the display of other OS objects, for example process_list.

Where no OS has been detected, the Resources list contains only the Connection tab showing the connection.

For more information about the meaning of the tabs and information displayed in the Resource Viewer, see the user manual for your OS.

Note

Different OS plug-ins might display information in different ways in the Resource Viewer, for example by adding new menus. Similarly, other RealView Debugger extensions might add other tabs to the Resources list.
