This guide illustrates how to run and debug an ERIKA Enterprise v3 application for S32K144EVB or S32K148EVB boards:

• Using the Eclipse environment with integrated debugger support (PEmicro OCD).

Prerequisites

Additional information on prerequisites is available at the Quick Start Guide - Prerequisites.

PEmicro Eclipse Plugin Download

• Open your favourite web broser and go to URL PEmicro GDB Server for ARM devices as shown in the following figure:

• Save the downloaded PEmicro Eclipse Plugin as you want into file-system.

• Currently the PEmicro Eclipse Plugin file name is com.pemicro.debug.gdbjtag.pne.updatesite-3.0.9-SNAPSHOT.zip

PEmicro Eclipse Plugin Installation

• Run RT-Druid v3 Eclipse IDE as shown in the following figure:

Figure 3: RT-Druid v3 Eclipse IDE

• Click on Help->Install New Software... menu entry as shown in the following figure:

Figure 4: Install New Software...

• The Available Software dialog will open as shown in the following figure:

• Click on the Add button to confirm the PEmicro Eclipse Plugin package selection as shown in the following figure:

Figure 8: PE Micro Eclipse Plugin selection.

• Click on the PEMicro Software check-box to select the PEmicro Eclipse Plugin to install.

• Click on the Next > button to let the 'plugin requirements and dependencies calculation' process starts as shown in the following figure:

Figure 9: PE Micro Eclipse Plugin requirements and dependencies calculation.

• Once the 'plugin requirements and dependencies calculation' process ends, the Installation Details dialog is opened as shown in the following figure:

Figure 10: PE Micro Eclipse Plugin installation details.

• Click on the Next > button to open the Review Licenses dialog as shown in the following figure:

Figure 11: PE Micro Eclipse Plugin license review.

• Click on the I accept the terms of the license agreements radio-button to accept the license terms.

• Finally click on the Finish button to start the installation process as shown in the following figure:

Figure 12: PE Micro Eclipse Plugin installation.

• Once the installation process ends, the Software Updates dialog will appear as shown in the following figure:

Figure 13: RT-Druid Eclipse restart.

• Click on the Restart Now button to restart the RT-Druid Eclipse IDE.

PEmicro OCD Configuration

• Instatiate and build an Erika 3 application as shown in the following figure:

Figure 14: Erika 3 application built.

• Click on Run->Debug Configurations... menu entry as shown in the following figure:

Figure 15: Debug Configurations...

• The Debug Configuration dialog window will open as shown in the following figure:

Figure 16: New Debug Configuration.

• Select GDB PEmicro Interface Debugging entry from the left panel and click on the New lauch configuration button as shown in the previous figure.

• A New_configuration entry will be created as child of GDB PEmicro Interface Debugging entry in the left panel as shown in the following figure:

Figure 17: New Debug Configuration Entry.

• Fill the configuration Name field (e.g. S32K144Event).

• Use the Browse... button to select the Project (e.g. S32K144Event)

• Use the Browse... button to select the C/C++ Application to debug (e.g. C:\Evidence\Erika3\RT-Druid\CoMeS\ws\S32K144Event\out\erika3app.elf)

• Then click on the Debugger tab-sheet to configure the PEmicro Debugger interface as shown in the following figure:

Figure 18: PEmicro Debug Configuration.

• Use Select Device button to select the device to debug (e.g. S32K144F512M15 from NXP/S32K1xx folder).

• Scroll-down the Debugger tab-sheet to configure the GDB client as shown in the following figure:

Figure 19: GDB Client Configuration.

• Use the Browse... button to select the GDB Client Executable (e.g C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\4.9 2015q3\bin\arm-none-eabi-gdb.exe)

• Click on the "Apply" button to confirm the settings.

• Now you can debug the selected project using the Eclipse interface as shown in the following figure:

Figure 20: Project Debug.

Embedded Systems Register View Eclipse Plugin Download

• Open your favourite web broser and go to URL Eclipse Embedded Systems Register View as shown in the following figure:

Figure 1:Eclipse Embedded Systems Register View.

• Download the Eclipse Embedded Systems Register View JARs:
  • org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview.data_0.2.6.r191.jar
  • org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview.data_feature_0.2.6.r191.jar
  • org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview_0.2.6.jar
  • org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview_feature_0.2.6.jar

Embedded Systems Register View Eclipse Plugin Patching

• Extract, using your favourite zip extractor (e.g. 7-zip), the downloaded org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview.data_0.2.6.r191.jar file (note that a jar file is a zip file!).

• Locate the CMSIS SVD file for your specific microntroller (e.g. S32K144.svd or S32K148.svd) into NXP S32 Design Studio installation path (e.g. C:\NXP\S32DS_ARM_v2.0\S32DS\S32SDK_S32K14x_EAR_0.8.6\platform\devices\S32K144\S32K144.svd)

• Copy the CMSIS SVD file into org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview.data_0.2.6.r191\data\SVD(CMSIS)\NXP directory of the extracted jar.

• Rename the file extension of CMSIS SVD file from .svd to .xml.

• Compress the patched org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview.data_0.2.6.r191 directory using your favourite zip compressor (e.g. 7-Zip) and name it as the original file name (org.eclipse.cdt.embsysregview.data_0.2.6.r191.jar).

Embedded Systems Register View Eclipse Plugin Installation

• Copy the downloaded and patched JAR files into RT-Druid v3 Eclipse plugins directory (e.g. C:\Evidence\Erika3\RT-Druid\eclipse\plugins).

• Note that RT-Druid v3 must be restarted.

Embedded Systems Register View Configuration

• Right-click on EE3s32k148 project into Eclipse Project Explorer panel and click on Build Project context-menu entry as shown in the following figure:

Figure 19: Erika project build.

• The build process starts as shown in the following figure:

Figure 20: Erika build process.

• The build process ends successfully as shown in the following figure:
