14.6.4. Setting a breakpoint doesn't work

Question:

I am trying to set a breakpoint using the BDI2000 telnet interface. However, the code does not stop at the breakpoint.

Answer:

Make sure that the CPU has been stopped before setting the breakpoint. You can verify this by issuing the "info" command before setting the breakpoint. If the target state is "running" you must use the "halt" command to stop the CPU before you can successfully set the breakpoint.
