Function: The command triggers CODESYS to check whether or not a core dump file already exists on the controller.
If a core dump file exists, then CODESYS lets you load this file to the project directory.
With the following requirements, CODESYS generates a new dump file with the current application data:
-
A core dump file does not exist yet or CODESYS has rejected a core dump file from being loaded.
-
AND: The application is currently stopped at breakpoint or an exception has been thrown.
The generated core dump file is saved directly to the project directory: <project name>.<device name>.<application name>.<GUID of the application>.core. You can cancel the file generation by clicking the button in the status bar.
The amount of detail in the core dump depends on the support from the runtime system. Runtime systems which are suitable for this purpose generate just one dump in the case of an exception error. The core dump output from clicking “Load Core Dump” can therefore be used for error analysis.
Call: “Debug Core Dump” menu
Requirement: The application is in online mode.
