[edk2-devel] [PATCH 2/3] ArmPlatformPkg: Fix target initialisation in cmd_load_symbols.py

[Rebecca Cran]

Since the documentation was a bit difficult to find, I'll make a note here.

For Development Studio 2021.2 it was in 
/opt/arm/developmentstudio-2021.2/sw/ide/plugins/com.arm.debug.interpreter.jython.api_2021.2.0.20211118_074138/doc/arm_ds.html 
.
