well, cdl for driver (CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_ARM_ERTEC) is
\ecos\packages\devs\eth\arm\ertec\current\cdl\ertec_eth_drivers.cdl
and also CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_ARM_ERTEC exists in ecos.db.  the c file is
under \ecos\packages\devs\eth\arm\ertec\current\src. however, it is
not built under  \ECOS\EB400_build\devs\eth\arm\ertec\current\ (this
is my location for eclipse project). what may be the reason for that?
thanks,
