Sergei,
as far as i understood:
- Zylin is adding debugging support for embedded gdb, by adding new
Launch configurations
- net.sf.mspgcc is adding tool chain configurations
so both should not harm each other if used together
so,
- the minimum approach is to use non of them, not Zylin and not
net.sf.mspgcc
it works, just use MinGW for the tool chain and gdb server debugger
for the Debug configuration. Even not using MinGW works, you may use
MacOS tool chain (works well on windows)
- the maximum approach is to use both,
but when using the tool chains from net.sf.mspgcc i found no
possibility to switch the discovery option from gcc to msp430-gcc so
the indexer does not work well and a warning is emmited "Error
launching external scanner info generator (gcc ..."
- my best practice is
* use MinGW for the build tool chain
* use Zylin for the Debug Configuration
one "potential problem" with all tested debug configurations:
if setting "use full path to set breakpoints" setting breakpoints
will not work any longer, but I am not shure if this is needed and
therefore turning into a real problem some time
