Getting RDI-stub to work

Getting RDI-stub to work

[Kalpak Shah]

Hey,

We are trying to have more than one inferior under GDB at a time. In
essence we need to make GDB asynchronous. We want to use the ARMulator
as a testcase, but the rdi is not working. We downloaded the arm-elf
package from the Codesourcery toolchain but couldnt find the
armulate.sdi to get the rdi-stub working.

Can anyone advice us abt how to get the rdi-stub working?? We are
using i686-Ubuntu and gdb-6.4.

Thanks,
Kalpak

Well, there's two things that go by the name ARMulator.  If they want
the one in the GDB sim tree, then they should just use the remote
protocol; otherwise, if they've already got a copy of ARMulator, they
ought to have armulate.sdi.

Unless the question is whether rdi-stub includes ARM's simulator.  No,
it definitely doesn't.
