Hi Ariga,

  According to your download messages, I found you specified the
object file and those functions were still in "not-linked" status. For
example, you can see ".text.cyg_start" and so on but not a single
".text" section.
  You may check other directories or eCos manuals to see where the
real linked ELF file is.

BR,
  Tommy.

Hello,
I don't know if I following everything you doing, but the "running man"
icon does not seem to do in insight what it does in most other
debuggers. Instead it means "reload your program" or something like
that. Once you see code on your screen you can set breakpoints and then
you must do the "continue" function: the ->{} icon or type C. When you
"continue" the running man changes to a STOP sign logo which you do
press to HALT your program. But to start up again, you do "continue".

Hope this helps.

How to properly run insight for eCos application?

[ariga masahiro]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 4880 bytes --]

Hello everyone,

I do not know how to properly run insight for eCos application.
Would you please teach me ?

I started to run insight like next on cygwin prompt.
LINK@ariga ~/ether_test_plus_simplemain-O1
$ sh-elf-insight.exe nc_test_slave.o

Then insight's source window appeared showing nc_test_slave.c.
In order to break at sure point,I set breakpoint at top of cyg_start 
function.
Red square mark was shown.
Then I clicked Running-Man icon,and DownLoading began and next log appeared 
in console window.

Loading section .text.test_delay, size 0x38 lma 0x0
Start address 0x0, load size 8652
Transfer rate: 3 KB/sec, 298 bytes/write.
(gdb)

When Download finished,"Make breakpoint pending on future shared library 
load?" window poped up (why).
I clicked "NO",then transfered to running state,Running-Man icon changing to 
STOP icon,
and down in Source Window "Program is running" appeared.
But never breaked at breakpoint I would like to stop.
I wonder where I was wrong?

I also tried to GDB remote debugging.
Although it became nearly the same result,I appended log below.
