ABSTRACT:
A method for debugging a read only memory (ROM) in a wireless target device is disclosed. A wireless communication link is established between the target device and a host computer. A debug mode change command is received from the host computer by the application program running on the target device via a wireless communication interface in the target device. The wireless communication interface is parsed with the monitor program. A debug instruction is received by the monitor program from a debugger in the host computer where the debug instruction includes an entry address and a jump address. The application program jumps to the received jump address upon reaching the entry address location. An acknowledgement is transmitted from the target device to the debugger in the host computer, and, in response to the acknowledgement, a second debug instruction is received from the debugger in the host computer.
