- Subject: Problem with setting register value using MI interface
Hi,
I am trying to write a value to a register using MI2 interface.
Unfortunately sometimes th -var-assign command fails and gives me
error. Does any one know why is that?
GDB<< -var-create r1 * $r1
GDB>> ^done,name="r1",numchild="0",value="2140372880",type="uint32_t"

GDB>> ^done,type="uint32_t"
GDB>> (gdb)
GDB<< -var-set-format r1 hexadecimal
GDB>> ^done,format="hexadecimal"
