RTDX – Real Time Data Exchange * Transfer debugging information to the Host side Code Composer Studio while your application continues to run in real time. * Provides low-overhead communications between the Host CCS and Target application. * Does not stop processor during debug - no need for breakpoints. What does it do for me? RTDX – Real Time Data eXchange – is part of the Code Composer Studio. It allows: tracking and visualisation of tasks being executed gathering of real-time statistics on system execution display of variables in real time low overhead message output via LOG_printf Note that while RTDX is capable of real-time debug, it does affect the operation of the processor being debugged. Hence, it may alter or degrade the system’s performance. When would I use it? RTDX is a technology used within the debugger. You would not normally use it explicitly. Rather, the system uses it when you request real-time information gathering. Typically this is when you are debugging tasks or interrupts, where RTDX allows you to check the specific sequences of tasks, threads and interrupts, and evaluate the effect of changing priorities; information on the processor’s loading; or using the LOG_printf function to display debug information at speed.
