How to build DEBUG in BLE_Ota app?

[Exeu]

Hi,

what i need to do, if i want to build the Debug app of BLE_Ota Demo application (FW 1.23.0)

If i import the BLE_Ota app there is only "Release".

If i now click on Debug as STM32 Application, the fw is uploaded but then in the Breakpoint i just get the following:

there seems to be a "Debug" config for this project - But i can not see this in my IDE.

Hello,

debugging this project is not supported as generated binary in debug mode is too big for allocated 24kB Flash sectors (between 0x8000000-0x8006000).

You can find more information in the README file of the project.

Best regards,

But isn't there 28kb reserved for the loader?

FLASH (rx) : ORIGIN = 0x08000000, LENGTH = 28K

It would actually be quite helpful to have the OTA app debugeable. Maybe you can think of getting rid of some unnecessary stuff in there?

Actually in your own video about the OTA app the guy is showing sth. With a debugger.. sadly with a fw from the stoneage.
