Is GDB supported in ucLinux?

Yes, you can use both background debugger interfaces and gdbserver.

Hi Damian,

For some reason people here tried to use it but with no success. What is the recipe for doing it?

Thanks, Mihai

using gdbserver requires no specific hardware, so it's probably the easiest. build gdbserver with your target toolchains and build gdb itself with your native toolchain. you can configure both gdb and gdbserver like so: ./configure --build=i386-redhat-linux --host=i386-redhat-linux --target=TARGET

then you run the gdbserver on the target like: # gdbserver :3000 /bin/app and gdb on the host # gdb /src/bin/app (gdb) target remote IP.AD.RE.SS:3000

using a BDM is specific to whichever target/BDM interface you have.

Regards,
