Or is there any plan to develop a simulator like wince's x86 simulator that can run ecos in it? I understand people have been using the bochs PC emulator as well as vmware. I don't think a VM is that bad for debugging in practice. There are several simulators that eCos has been known to work with, for PowerPC, ARM (with SID), MIPS TX39, MN10300 and H8 at least. Not for the x86 architecture however, and none of these allow thread support. Note there are very cheap ARM dev boards out there now. Have a look at Kwikbyte, for example http://www.kwikbyte.com Jifl -- --["No sense being pessimistic, it wouldn't work anyway"]-- Opinions==mine
