Debugging uCLinux application using NIOS IDE

Hi all,

I'm new to NIOS-II IDE. Our project requires us to run a multi-threaded (POSIX) application on uCLinux OS running on a NIOS-II processor

1) Does anyone know if the Nios-II debugger allow the developers to easily debug multi-threaded application? Has anyone had experience debugging a multi-threaded application under the IDE and uCLinux OS?

i.e. in MS Visual C++, we can select which thread we want to keep track of. I thought that was quite convenient. I hope that NIOS IDE would allow us to do something similar.

2) One thing that puzzles me is that once uCLinux OS is running, and we have loaded our program onto it, would we still be able to use Nios-II IDE to debug the program?

Sorry if some of the questions seem so naïve, but it’s my first time.

Thanks! http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif
