Debugging and ram breakpoints.

PCWH 8.086 (but tried other versions), MACH X with latest firmware 0.48.
PIC 18LF6722

Firstly, is it just me or is the breaks tab in the debugger still broken.
It works ok if you add or remove a breakpoint by double clicking on next to the line number in the code window.
But if you try to add a breakpoint manually in the breaks tab by clicking on advanced it never appears in the list although i think it is there as you can go back into advanced and change the settings.
I reported this months ago.
Anyway, my specific problem is i now need to use a Ram breakpoint to find out why a structure is being corrupted but it doesn't work.
The address and everything is entered in advanced but when run the code never breaks.

Has anybody had this working ?

No point in asking CCS as they've not replied to support emails for months.

Thanks,

Jim

Hello Jim,

Just wondering if you got the Ram Breakpoints working because I'm having the same problem as you did.

Thank you,
Benjamin.

Advanced (data read and write) breakpoints are working fine with MPLAB/ICD2.
