Hi everybody: 

 

Does anyone know what actions take place when a software breakpoint is set in the IDE? I mean, what information is send via JTAG? what happens in the program memory? Is the position of the instruction where the brakpoint was set rewritten with a new one??? 

 

Thanks in advance, 

Luis
