- Hi,
-
- I've been learning CodeVision the past few days and I'm quite
- impressed, though I wish it were documented a bit better. I have
- a question. I'm trying to use the Trap Manager to set a "watch"
- breakpoint. That is, I want to have the debugger stop when a
- certain address gets written to. If I go into the trap manager
- and type into the Trap: field something like "watch address 0x7fff0c02"
- it comes back with the response "Unimplemented: watchpoints on non-absolute
- addresses". The address I entered above was the address of a variable
- that I retrieved from the variable browser. I notice that in the
- documented examples all watch traps use 24 bit addresses not 32? The
- watch traps should also work with variables so I tried doing something
- like "watch i" where i is a variable. It gave me the same error.
-
- I know I'm doing something wrong. Could someone please lend some
- advice.
-
- Thanks,
- Tim
