GNU tools and their documentation

Cygnus's GNUPro Toolkit, which includes the GCC and G++ compilers and the GDB debugger, is needed to build eCos applications. It is bundled with the CDROM distribution of the eCos Developer's Kit, and is also available on the Cygnus Sourceware site.

Online HTML versions of the full GNUPro documentation are provided, as well as a specific reference guide for this hardware architecture. The full GNUPro documentation can also be found on the web at http://www.cygnus.com/pubs/gnupro/.

If you have a CD distribution of the eCos Developer's Kit, and would prefer printed documentation, please fill out the card you will find in the eCos package and return it to Cygnus. We will send you the full printed documentation and Dr. Ken Sakamura's µITRON book.

The version of GNUPro bundled with eCos contains some new features which are not yet in the standard release, including selective linking of functions and data and constructor priority ordering. These features are described in the GNUPro reference for each architecture.
