GDB is not. You probably >want to talk to the author of the binutils port; check >binutils/MAINTAINERS. I bet he's got some plans for a GDB port. Oh God! - I had no idea there was so much work in this :-(. Well - The GDB doesn't have to run on this target, it just needs to remote debug it - Doesn't this simplify it a bit? >> When this is setup, and the GDB's host is different from it's >>target, does >> it >> expect to debug remotely? - Obviously it can't run it on host, >>because the >> code is target specific? >> >>Either remotely, or with a built-in simulator. >> >> OK - Starting to make sense :-D.

But still - A search on "cris" in the GDB source codes reveils 300 Kb of source code, and I'm just trying to load some code into the GDB, which it must send to my target... Still feel like I'm missing something :-) Best Regards J.S.
