Intel: Software that works when running Run As ⇒ Nios II Hardware from the Nios® II Software Build Tools (Nios® II SBT), but does not work when standalone booting from e.g. CFI Flash. What could be the problem?

Nios II

Category: Nios® II
Tools: Nios® II EDS
device:-


In a configuration that uses the JTAG_UART core, if Reduce device driver is set to On in the bsp-editor settings, the character string output by printf will be stored in the buffer inside the JTAG_UART core.
However, if the terminal does not connect, this buffer may be FULL resulting in a blocking call.

If this is the case for you, removing the print statement from your software or launching a terminal by typing nios2-terminal from the Nios® II Command Shell will resolve it.
