4.11 Accessing the debugger

This section describes the input, output, and RDI functions that you can use to access

the debugger.

Several functions are provided to display messages in the host debugger. Under

armsd

these functions print messages to the console. Under AXD, they display messages to the

relevant window:

• Hostif_DebugPrint

• Hostif_ConsolePrint on page 4-53

• Hostif_PrettyPrint on page 4-53

• Hostif_DebugPause on page 4-56.

All of these functions take the following as the first parameter:

const struct RDI_HostosInterface *hostif

This value is available in the state datastructure of the model, as defined between the

BEGIN_STATE_DECL()

and

END_STATE_DECL()

macros (see Basic model interface on

page 4-12).

4.11.1 Hostif_DebugPrint

This function displays a message in the RDI logging window under a GUI debugger, or

to the console under

armsd

const char *format, ...)
