What is Debugging?
Every developer comes to a point where he has to monitor the
code execution in order to find errors in the code, or simply
to see if everything is going as planed. This hunt for bugs or
errors in the code is called debugging. There are two ways
to do this: one is the software simulation, which enables
you to simulate what is supposed to be happening on the
microcontroller as your code lines are executed and the other,
most reliable one, is monitoring the code execution on the
MCU itself. And this latter one is called In-Circuit debugging.
"In-Circuit" means that it is the real deal - code executes right
on the target device.
What is mikroICD
The on-board mikroProg
highly effective tool for a Real-Time debugging on hardware
level. The mikroICD
program on the host PIC microcontroller and view variable
values, Special Function Registers (SFR), RAM, CODE and
EEPROM memory along with the mikroICD
on hardware. Whether you are a beginner, or a professional,
this powerful tool, with intuitive interface and convenient
set of commands will enable you to track down bugs quickly.

Supported Compilers
All MikroElektronika compilers, mikroC, mikroBasic and
mikroPascal for PIC®, dsPIC® and PIC32® natively support
mikroICD
exploit the full potential of fast hardware debugging. Along with
compilers, make sure to install the appropriate programmer
drivers and mikroProg Suite for PIC® programming software,
as described on pages 14 and 15.

How do I use the debugger?
When you build your project for debugging, and program
the microcontroller with this HEX file, you can start the
debugger using [F9] command. Compiler will change layout
to debugging view, and a blue line will mark where code
execution is currently paused. Use debugging toolbar in
the Watch Window to guide the program execution, and stop
anytime. Add the desired variables to Watch and monitor their
values. Complete guide to using mikroICD
is provided within the EasyPIC Fusion
