Development System
The most important window is the emulator control window. In this window the
source code is loaded and executed, instruction breakpoints can be set, trace points
can be set. The second window is the Watch window which contains a list of the
symbol definitions, the currently watched variables as well as the conditional break
points. The third window is the trace buffer window, and is only activated if the trace
enable button is activated. This window displays the contents of the trace buffer and
allows the printing of the contents. A forth window is also active if the VICE system
is running. This window is a virtual representation of the micocontroller IO ports. The
developer can see the state of the output ports as well as modify the state of the
input ports. This section of the interface is dependent on the type of microcontroller
defined in the project definition and consequently is not described here. For a more
detailed definition see the manual corresponding to the microcontroller being
emulated.
2.9.1. Emulator Control Window
The virtual emulator as well as the in-circuit emulator are both controlled from the
same interface. Consequently it is only possible to work with one system at a time.
The VICE / ICE control window is shown below.
Fig. 11 The emulator control window
The control window is composed of three sections, the execution toolbar (A), the
microcontroller status panel (B) and the source code buffer (C).
