MSPDebug
========

MSPDebug is a free debugger for use with MSP430 MCUs. It supports
FET430UIF, eZ430, RF2500 and Olimex MSP-JTAG-TINY programmers. It can be
used as a proxy for gdb or as an independent debugger with support for
programming, disassembly and reverse engineering.

Features
--------

  * Userspace only: no kernel modifications required.
  * Works with RF2500, eZ430, FET430UIF, Launchpad and Olimex MSP-JTAG-TINY
    programmers. Also supports the TI flash bootloader.
  * Can act as a GDB remote stub (replacement for msp430-gdbproxy)
    and/or a GDB client.
  * Can single-step, program, run to breakpoint and inspect memory on
    supported devices.
  * Can be used to access the FET430UIF bootloader.
  * Supports Intel HEX, ELF32, BSD symbol table, COFF, TI Text and
    SREC file formats.
  * Can disassemble code in memory, including translating addresses to
    symbols.
  * Includes reverse-engineering features such as instruction search,
    call-graph analysis and symbol table editing.
  * Simulation mode allows execution of MSP430 code without hardware.

Compiling from source
---------------------

Ensure that you have the necessary packages to compile programs that use
libusb (on Debian or Ubuntu systems, you might need to do apt-get
install libusb-dev). After that, unpack and compile the source code
with:

    tar xvfz mspdebug-version.tar.gz
    cd mspdebug-version
    make

If you don't want GNU readline support, you can invoke make with:

    make WITHOUT_READLINE=1

After compiling, install the binary and manual page by running (as
root):

    make install

Type "mspdebug --help" for usage instructions.
