Debugging : Breakpoints in Libraries
Jan 17th, 2025 at 1:42pm

I have added several libraries by cloning them as shared projects in the SLN.

I am trying to set a breakpoint in a cloned library.  The breakpoint does not seem to be working.

This applies to .h/.cpp libraries (ex: Arduino_ConnectionHandler).
This applies also to .h-only libraries (ex: MKRWAN)

Breakpoints in the .INO work as expected.

Are there steps necessary to us the VM debugger on libraries?

Any Ideas?
How does one debug the code in included libraries?

Apologies for the delayed reply.

The Library Debugging is only available when using the Hardware Debuggers, and this board has its' SWDIO/SWCLK pins available on the pads on the back (shown on Page 3 of the hardware spec).  Then a debug probe can be used as shown in the SAMD Debugging Guide.

The Serial Debugger is limited in this area due to the Breakpoints being injected into the Library code during the build process, which is problematic in many scenarios.

Let us know if you need any help getting setup with the Hardware Debugging, or if you have (or have made from another board) a debug probe not in the default list.
