[ECOS] HAL port to LPC2294

[ECOS] HAL port to LPC2294

[Michael Labus]

Hi,

I am going to port ecos on the LPC2294 board from olimex. Searching the
list for similar projects I found the following entry:

/packages/hal/arm/lpc2xxx/

eCosCentric also have a port for the LPC229x development board.

My question is whether the source for the LPC229x board is already
included in the /packages/hal/arm/lpc2xxx/ source or can be downloaded
somewhere else. Using the Configtool I could not find any template or
import any package for the LPC2294.

Regards,

Michael

eCosCentric have not released any of there LPC ports. 

So you have a choice of doing a port yourself based on the existing
LPC ports or licensing the code from eCosCentric. I'm sure they will
be in touch with you soon....

there's no 'LPC229x board'.
There are various boards based on the different LPC2xxx uC-s. The current CVS code 
supports 3 boards, two using 2106 and one using 2129.
Look at how they are written and make a new platform port for your board.Most of the 
difference will be in the hal_platform_setup.h file where you write the bootup code, and 
in the linker scripts in pkgconf.
There may also be missing bits in the lpc/var directory where lpc22xx pieces need to be 
handled and you will need to fill those. Probably not much, but even so contributing them 
back will be appreciated :)
