Unlimited Breakpoints with NXP's chips

    Hello,

    for everyone who is interested in using NXP's chips and this press release http://www.segger.com/cms/admin/uplo…NXP_FlashBP.pdf , this feature has been disabled with the newest firmware.

    Not stated here http://www.segger.com/j-link-release-notes.html, be aware that you cannot use it free of charge.
    (free of charge != evaluation mode)

    From my side, confirmed for LPC2478 and LPC1788.

    To SEGGER: Would be nice to issue a new PR or specify which cores are enabled.

    This is incorrect information...
    It has nothing to do with the firmware. It is DLL-related (PC software) only.
    Older versions of the J-Link software (not firmware!) still allow to use this feature free of charge.
    To be specific: Versions prior to V4.74 can still be used to use the "unlimited number of breakpoints in flash memory" free of charge with NXP LPC microcontrollers.
    With later versions, it is still possible to evaluate the feature free of charge. (Free for evaluation & non-commercial use only)

    The existing PR has been annotated accordingly.
