How can I debug/get output from a microcontroller using cc-debugger?
I assume you are using code composer and you should(Keil uvision is a other good option). When you must select in the Flash button's arrow the "debug" option(little insect icon). 



Than when you are going to Flash your MCU a interface will open showing the register and where you can track variable values.
