nios2-terminal

Hello,

I added a 8 bit pio (input only, no interrupt) to a standard feature 2c35. The compiling as successful.

For testing I used the counter-example. The program is transfered, starts. But I receive the following message:

nios2-terminal: exiting due to ^D

The program does one run then aborts.

But I didn't press an abort or any other button or key on the pc.

What is the reason for this behaviour?

Thanks for your help in advance.

    That would be caused by the embedded side. Does your software send that character? (not sure what the value is so you'd have to look it up in an ASCII table). One of the software examples in the Nios II IDE uses this character to break the communication after the program finishes (closes the terminal connection in a clean way).
