RE: [U-Boot-Users] Using the abatron to debug an image in flash
Hello Detlev, Wolfgang,
Thanks for your replies, you are completely correct, I should have realised! I had some problems compiling with -O0, however building with -O1 was just as good.
Now I have another problem, one which I hope you may have come across before, my debugger is failing to keep track of the updated addresses of static variables after relocation, which makes displaying variables kinda hard :)
Any ideas?
Mark.

Accessing normal static variables should be no problem. It's just initialized data pointers which need manual relocation. I try to avoid this data type whenever possible, or we need to relocate it. If you find unrelocated initialized pointers please let me know.
But accessing the variables itself should work just fine - if they are pointers, they will just contain unrelocated addresses.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
Hi Mark,

Yes, this is a somewhat recurring question ;) Take a look here[1] and see if the information helps.
Cheers Detlev
