The DAC support for each TI TMS toolkit includes the following:
- A detailed Makefile Generator template verified with Merant, Microsoft, Borland and GNU Make utilities
- Preinclude files
- User Defined Actions templates
- TI toolbar icons common to all TI tools
DAC is currently integrating a DAPI (Debugging support Application Programming Interface). This interface will enable DAC to exchange messages with Code Composer Studio (CCS) debugger. The advantages of such a connection are that it allows you to set or delete breakpoints from within DAC and to execute other debugger operations.
Furthermore, DAC is not only synchronized with CCS debugger, but runs with it as it operates - it is always in the same file and on the same line as CCS debugger. Thus, the usability of both DAC and CCS debugger is increased.
For example you find a variable with a wrong value. Then you can switch to DAC and with a simple right mouse click on the corresponding line you can open a Browser window with all the lines where its value changes. On each of these code-lines you can set (directly from the DAC tool bar) a breakpoint or trigger other Debugger actions. Furthermore you can set breakpoints from any node in the call hierarchy graph-window.
