Re:CodeSourcery, DriverLib and first steps

The default makedefs doesn't contain debug information for the gcc compiler.

So I added -g -D DEBUG -O1 to the CFLAGS.

The good news is I was able to debug a simple application.

The bad news is that one time it works and several times it doesn't.
It doesn't seem reliable at all. I hope it's due to my lack of knowledge.

The same thing applies to the LM Programmer Utility. Often it hangs and I need to close, cycling the power on the board, restart the utility and try to download firmware. Something like "plug 'n pray".

Why is so difficult to download and debug a piece of code?

Anyway, I thank you very much for the help you're giving me.
