UDE Support
UDE supports the "OS-aware" debugging of the Real Time Operating System (RTOS) Nucleus and can show all Nucleus objects with its properties in a plain form. In the summary presentation the Nucleus objects are grouped, in order to give to the user a simple and fast overview.
The basis for the Nucleus add-on form is the UDE object model, which provides application-referred data such as variables and memory contents. For the transmission of relevant data the default debug communication channel is used. Beside the preferred JTAG communication interface the ASC-, SSC- or CAN- interface can be used too. This solution participates from the advantage, that for the RTOS visualization no dedicated interface must be reserved and this thus can be used without reservation by the user application.
