Hi All,

I can found it. Process is the following:

1. start JLinkGDBServer: JLinkGDBServer -device nrf51822 -i swd -speed 1000
2. Start Code::Blocks
3. Global settings/debugger/default executable path: /usr/bin/arm-none-eabi-gdb
4. project/properties/debugger:
project connection type: TCP
ipaddress: localhost Port:2331
**uncheck** connect with extended-remote
**check** Do NOT adjust LD_LIBRARY_PATH before launching debugger

additional gdb commands:

before connection:
target remote localhost:2331
monitor speed 1000
monitor endian little
monitor flash breakpoints=1
monitor flash download=1
monitor flash device=swd
file ./build/<elf_file>
load

after connection:
thbreak main
monitor reset
continue

delete thbreak main if you don't want to break in main

thx Zamek

Hi Marcel,

Could you list your .gdbinit in your home and project directory if exists?

I use QT Creator for debugging. The only thing I do is:

mon reset 0
load
mon reset 0

All other setting you mentioned are not necessary. They are already configures when you call JLinkGDBServer or JLink knows it already because it knows the target. Using 'mon reset' does not work for me somehow. I always use 'mon reset 0'

Segger provide a gdb server for JLink. Use the documentation there.

www.segger.com/jlink-gdb-server.html

Once you have that it should be a matter of just hooking up a gdb server to Code blocks.

BTW You might do better with something designed to do this sort of thing. eg http://www.emide.org/
