14. Using the Command Line

The High-performance Embedded Workshop Command Line Interpreter allows the user to control the debugging
platform by sending text-based commands instead of the window menus and commands. It is especially useful if a
series of predefined commands need to be sent to the debugging platform by calling them from a batch file and,
optionally, recording the output in a log file.

Note:

To specify a file in the command line, use a placeholder (excluding TCL). If you wish to specify a directory not
included in the placeholder, specify an absolute path. After specifying the absolute path, this file will not be correctly
found when it is in another host computer or environment where the path content is different. In such cases, specify the
file again.

Example: FILE_LOAD ELF/DWARF2 $(CONFIGDIR)\\demo.abs
