* cross remote debugging an ELF from windows with Insight @ 2010-07-04 6:58 Alessandro Salvatori 2010-07-04 8:31 ` Hui Zhu 0 siblings, 1 reply; 7+ messages in thread From: Alessandro Salvatori @ 2010-07-04 6:58 UTC (permalink / raw) To: insight Hi, I am trying and cross-debugging remotely with insight... insight is running on windows (32bit) and my gdbserver is running on linux (amd_64). I guess that the cygwin build of insight doesn't understand the elf format but just the PE one... when i click on "run" after having specified my target as a gdbserver on tcp, i have to pick my executable and as i do so I get the following dialog box: --------------------------- Error --------------------------- Error loading "/cygdrive/c/Users/alessandro/ Desktop/GI/guestinfo_hack": not in executable format: File format not recognized --------------------------- OK --------------------------- thank you! -Alessandro- ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
