[ECOS] fail to compile using GCC

[ECOS] fail to compile using GCC

[Piteir]

Hi, 

I am Piteir

I have just to use eCOS and download eCOS ver 1.3.1
from net distribution. I am using win98SE on the host
PC and Cywin ver 1.3.2, My target device is Cirrus
Logic Maverick EP7211.

I have follow to build the cross compiler for ARM from
http://sources.redhat.com/ecos/tools/win-arm-elf.html 

I used binutils-2.11 instead of binutils-2.10.1 and 
GDB 5.0 distribution.

I try to compile using:
arm-elf-gcc -g -o hello.exe -I/c/usr/include hello.c
-L/c/usr/lib -T/usr/lib/target.ld -nostdlib 

but got error message that cannot find "target.ld"
file, I have tried to find it and still cann't find
it.

-is it possible that something wrong when I built the
ARM development tools for windows? or this is another
kind of problem?

-also I got confused because the real syntax example
for compiling is like:
arm-elf-gcc -g -o 'filename'.exe -IINSTALL_DIR.
what INSTALL_DIR here supposed to be, the cygwin or
eCOS dir?

-I also try to build the tests from eCOS configuration
tools but fail to run that, I got warning on "set
remotedebug" and some errors so I use cywin to run the
tes and success, is the anyone know how to fix this so
can be run in eCOS configuration Tool.


best regards,
Piteir

/usr/lib isn't the right path (nor is /c/usr/include nor /c/usr/lib). You
should be pointing at the eCos "install" directory which you would have
built from within the configuration tool.

Your eCos install directory.

You can ignore this warning.

You'll have to be more specific about the errors.

Sorry, I forget the spesific errors, (later I'll
attach) but then I try to use gdb_module in my EDB7211
instead of cygmon and the tests run just fine.

thanks, for the help.

Have you tried RedBoot? We recommend RedBoot now. Instructions are in the
RedBoot User's Guide on the web - see
