Use command ‘info sys’ to print a detailed report of attached cores

grlib> gdb

you will get a message:

gdb interface: using port 2222

On the other terminal (shell), run the DDD using the following command:

target extended-remote localhost:2222

The grmon shell will generate a message:

connected to port 2222

In the DDD, open program systes2.exe
On the DDD, gdb prompt, type “lo systest2.exe” , then run.
