debug configuration on eclipse to run softdevice + application + bootloader?

Sathya0812

Hello,

I am using Eclipse with ARM toolchain on ubuntu to buid my application with softdevice s132 api version 3.1.0. I managed to build on eclipse and merge softdevice hex with application with the help of nrfjprog and mergehex. I would really like to setup eclpse GDB debugger to perform line by line debuggging. But when I start the debug session it never hits main, and soon runs into infinite loop of the softdevice exception. As I have the *.out file with information only on my application related symbols, could this be the reason ? How do I configure debugger correctly? my Linker script is written as shown below to accomodate S132. Is there any other reason other that linker scripts that could cause this issue ?

This is my linker scripts :

PROJECT_NAME     := blinky_pca10040
TARGETS          := nrf52832_xxaa
OUTPUT_DIRECTORY := _build

SDK_ROOT := /home/name/nrf/sdk
