2.12.3 Collect execution history in a section

The execution history is collected as trace data only for a section while the program is in execution by setting a Trace event.

This Trace event consists of a trace start event and a trace end event.

To use this function, follow the procedure described below.

2.12.3.1 Set a Trace event

2.12.3.2 Execute the program

2.12.3.3 Edit a Trace event

2.12.3.4 Delete a Trace event

Caution 1.

Also see "2.16.7 Notes for setting events" for details on Trace events (e.g. limits on the number of enabled events).

Caution 2.

The event type (execution type/access type) that can be set as trace start and end events differ with each debug tool used.

Caution 3.

[Simulator]
Trace start events and trace stop events cannot be set/deleted while a tracer is running.

Caution 4.

[Simulator]
If you perform a trace from a trace start event until a trace end event, the simulator will not include the trace end event in the results of the trace. For this reason, if you are using a simulator, set the trace end event one line below the range for which you require display of the trace data.
