1.1.9. DSTREAM and RealView ICE host software
A DSTREAM debug and trace unit or RealView ICE debug unit provides the interface between your target hardware and the debug and analysis tools provided with RVDS:
-
Using DSTREAM and RealView Debugger you can:
-
debug your applications running on your target hardware
-
analyze trace captured in an Embedded Trace Buffer™ (ETB™), if present.
Note
RealView Debugger does not support tracing from the external trace port of a SoC with DSTREAM.
-
-
Using RealView ICE and RealView Debugger you can:
-
debug your applications running on your target hardware
-
analyze trace captured in an Embedded Trace Buffer™ (ETB™), if present.
With the addition of an RealView Trace or an RealView Trace 2 trace capture unit, you can also capture and analyze trace directly from an Embedded Trace Macrocell™ (ETM™).
-
-
To perform hardware profiling with ARM Profiler you require an RealView ICE debug unit connected to the host using TCP/IP or USB, together with an RealView Trace 2 trace capture unit connected to the host using USB.
Note
Profiling with DSTREAM is not supported.
The latest version of the DSTREAM and RealView ICE host software available at the time of this RVDS release is installed with the Full product selection.
A GDB plug-in is also provided for the ARM Workbench IDE. It enables you to configure DSTREAM or RealView ICE for use with GDB.
