Does using the debugger slow down execution speed of the program?
I've programmed some interrupts to occur periodically (timer int
errupts) and would like to know, when running under the
the debugger, if the periods are accurate.
Thanks
Joe

The debugger doesn't slow down the operation of the processor when
you are in the run mode. So the periods under this condition the period
should be accurate.
If you are doing things like single stepping, hit a break point, use
complex software breakpoints, or use the CodeWarrior standard IO features like
printing to the console or getting key board entry the operation of the
processor is halted to perform this features and hence real time functionality
is lost.
