Tip: Set up the command shell or
window as described in Setting Up the Vitis Environment prior to
running the tools.
The following describes the steps required to run the debug flow in software emulation from the command line. Refer to Using the Vitis IDE for information on debugging in the IDE. Debugging in the Vitis core development kit uses the following steps:
- Compiling and linking the host code for debugging by adding the
-goption to theg++command line as described in Building the Host Program. - Compiling and linking the kernel code for debugging by adding the
-goption to thev++command line as described in Building the Device Binary.Note: When debugging OpenCL kernels, there are additional steps that you can take during compiling and linking as described in Debugging OpenCL Kernels. - Launching GDB to debug the application. This process involves three command target platforms as described in Launching Host and Kernel Debug.
