MPLAB ICD 3 In-Circuit Debugger User's Guide

MPLAB ® ICD 3 In-Circuit Debugger User’s GuideBookmarksUse bookmarks to easily locate specific lines in a file.Under the Edit menu, select Bookmarks to manage bookmarks. Toggle (enable /disable) a bookmark, move to the next or previous bookmark, or clear all bookmarks.Breakpoint, HardwareAn event whose execution will cause a halt.Breakpoint, SoftwareAn address where execution of the firmware will halt. Usually achieved by a specialbreak instruction.BuildCompile and link all the source files for an application.CA general-purpose programming language which features economy of expression,modern control flow and data structures, and a rich set of operators.Calibration MemoryA special function register or registers used to hold values for calibration of a PICmicrocontroller on-board RC oscillator or other device peripherals.CleanUnder the MPLAB IDE Project menu, Clean removes all intermediary project files, suchas object, hex and debug files, for the active project. These files are recreated fromother files when a project is built.COFFCommon Object File Format. An object file of this format contains machine code,debugging and other information.Command Line InterfaceA means of communication between a program and its user based solely on textualinput and output.CompilerA program that translates a source file written in a high-level language into machinecode.Configuration BitsSpecial-purpose bits programmed to set PIC microcontroller modes of operation. AConfiguration bit may or may not be preprogrammed.Control DirectivesDirectives in assembly language code that cause code to be included or omitted basedon the assembly-time value of a specified expression.Cross Reference FileA file that references a table of symbols and a list of files that references the symbol. Ifthe symbol is defined, the first file listed is the location of the definition. The remainingfiles contain references to the symbol.Data DirectivesData directives are those that control the assembler’s allocation of program or datamemory and provide a way to refer to data items symbolically; that is, by meaningfulnames.DS51766A-page 86© 2008 Microchip Technology Inc.
