GDB and remote debugging

GDB and remote debugging

[Triumph The insult comic dog]

Hello

I'm sorry about me previous post, but I couldn't get this mail-list working, 
and I was desperatly needing help, so here goes...

I'm messing with the GDB for remote debugging, and have to make a debugging 
stub for a target, but I can't get the GDB to work the way I want it. Let's 
say I use the "Download Program" option it has (I'm running it under Cygwin if 
that makes any difference), and I want to "provoke" the GDB to start 
transmitting the program to a fake target (I would be using a terminal for 
simulating target commands) - Do any of you know if the "Download Program" 
works? - Do any of you know what to send from target to get it started? - I 
need a sequence of commands -> What the GDB sends, and what the target 
responds.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
 
Thanks
 
Cheers,
Triumph

The protocol for remote targets is in the Internals documentation.
