Debugging an "FAILED ASSERTION"

Help archive

Hi *,

I tried the default example and unfortunately I am getting an "FAILED ASSERTION" error (using my own board based on the atmega_common). What is the best way to debug this? the assert() calls do not have any string describing the actual error...

Best Regards, Robert

Hello Robert,

this feature is fairly new, but you can make the assert message more verbose by defining `DEBUG_ASSERT_VERBOSE`, see [1].
