Make sure you write your linker command file properly. You can find a sample
for arm in your CCS installation.
Avoid using printf... instead, use a global variable and set its value to
something. You can check the value in the watch window.

hello ...

Your kdebug is a .c (kdebug.c) file.
You are going to include it as a .h ("#include "kdebug.h") ???
I think the cross reference is wrong.

I think the complier cannot find it also (in normal situation) ...
If the complier did not give error, I think there might be some other
libraries using the same name.

Hi,
i think in  "kdebug.h" is 'include stdio.h' for printf.

Cheers

I'm a starter of CCS, and trying to write some
simple programs. In following samples:

kdebug.c

void printdebug()
{
printf("Test debug!");
}



main.c

#include "kdebug.h"

main()
{
printdebug();
}


After building and run, when main() call printdebug() 
in kdebug.c, the error

Can't Run Target CPU: Error number -2164 Error address 0

occurs. But if I wrote the printf in main(), it can
print out the message. Can anyone tell me what's the
problem?
