[ECOS] Config Tool platform list

[ECOS] Config Tool platform list

[Charles Schweizer]

  OK, I solved my problem with redboot by rebuilding it.  For some reason,
the .bin file on the web worked for every machine I tried except for the
target laptop.  With help from the ecos-discuss archives I was able to
rebuild from the CVS sources and get it to work.

  Now I want to run the tests.  I got the latest source from the CVS
repository, and built the libraries and tests.  To do this, I had to
download a newer version of Configtool.exe.  I ran the registry script
eCos-011025.reg to get the platforms, etc., into the registry.  When I try
to run the tests, however, it uses the old path notation ("//C/cygwin/...")
instead of the new notation ("/ecos-c/cygwin/..."), and thus fails.  The
generated makefiles, of course, use the new notation, so building is not
problematic.  How can I fix this?  I don't see anything in the platform
porperties or any general options that has to do with this.

Thanks,

The problem is in host/tools/ecostest/common/eCosTest.cpp, specifically
CeCosTest::CygPath(). It's still using the old //x scheme rather than
/ecos-x. I've created a bugzilla bug for it, but you're welcome to fix it.

The alternative is to run the tests by invoking GDB from the command line.
