Eclipse/CDT and embedded development [message #71180] Thu, 22 May 2003 18:46 Go to next message

I wonder if anybody has used Eclipse/CDT in embedded development. I\'m
trying to use Eclipse/CDT under windows to develop code for an 8-bit
microprocessor using gnu toolchain but have problems. I can\'t start
debugger and because I don\'t see any gdb output inside Eclipse (like I
see if I start gdb from command line in non gui mode) I can\'t figure out
what goes wrong. (I suspect that I just haven\'t figured out how to turn
on the gdb output, can\'t believe that this feature is just missing)

Any suggestions.

Also please reply if you have succesfully used Eclipse/CDT in embedded
development.

Regards,
Pavel

I know this is obvious, but is the gdb exe in your path?? Also if your
debugging a remote target, I believe that gdbserver needs to be running on
that target.


good luck

Yes it is but this is one of the things that confuse me in eclipse. Why do
I have to have gdb in my path if I can specify full path inside the Debug
options dialog.

There is a problem using the gdb server (it's the only option where I can
specify IP:port of my target). Because the Debugger dialog with "GDB
Server" option selected has a "Load shared library symbols automatically"
I suppose that CDT developers assume that this will always be under linux.
But I need to debug my remote target under windows/cygwin. (I can debug it
using gdb started from command line and using another windows based gui)

Anyway I'm stuck getting "Failed Launching CDI Debugger: Error
initializing: Malformed response to offset query, timeout". Is there any
way to see what was sent to gdb, what was received back and what was
expected? Don't see a way how to get this info.

Pavel
