Re: debugging with gdb
Can you give me more information on what configuration options I need to
set.
I have tried to build my application so that its address is set at
compile time and is different from the one redboot uses. However this
doesn't work. What gdb stubs options must I build the application woth?
Many thanks,
Will Wagner

I have an A&MViper powerpc860 board up and running. I am currently
investigating debugging options. The board has redboot on it with gdb stubs.
If I configure ecos not to have a network stack then I can connect to
the board with gdb over the network and download, run and debug my test
app. If I build ecos with network support it doesn't work as when the
code is run it initialises the network which obviously resets the
connection to gdb.
Is there a way to prevent this from happening? I assume not. I could
presumably do the same but use the serial port although I don't want to
do it as it will be slow and I need the serial port for other things.
This does work, you can share the ethernet device between the
application and the stub. You just have to ensure there are two
different IP addresses.
