I see a lot of discrepancies between the configuration Tool what I have &
what is explained in the ecos user manual.
Installation info.:
Ecos configuration Tool ver 2.08 (I am running it on Win98 machine)
Latest ecos repository pulled using WinCVS 1.3
1. In the ecos user manual, Under "Layout Manipulation" there is a line
like this, "View->Toolbars->Memory Layout" to enable the Memory Layout
Window. But I don't see any thing beyond View->toolbars. And also there is
no button to enable the Memory Layout Window in the tool bar.
Sorry, I'm afraid the eCos CT version 2 doesn't have the Memory Layout tool
yet.
Only the older MFC-based tool has this. You will need to either use the old
CT for this, or tweak the memory layout files by hand.
The latest, latest docs should make this clear but they probably haven't
filtered out to anon CVS yet.
2. Tool->Platforms is showing an empty window. There are no entries
(platforms) to select one from.
For Linux, there should be a platforms.tar.gz file in CVS and in the CT 2
distribution containing some platform info, but probably not very uptodate.
For Windows, CT 2 expects to find this information in the registry having
installed a full eCos kit. However you can add and edit this info via the
Platforms dialog.
3. When I do Tools->Run Tests. If there is no platform specified, the
configuration Tool is supposed to open-up the Platforms window (just like
Tool->Platforms) for selecting a platform from the list. But this doesn't
happen, instead the source gets built.
This seems to be a discrepancy between the docs for CT 1, and my
implementation of CT 2... sorry!
4. While it is building three buttons are suppose to appear (Run/Stop,
Close and Properties) on the properties window. But I don't see any.
These buttons should be in the Run Tests dialog, not when building.
I'll have to leave the other eCos questions to the experts...
Best regards,
Julian
