Re: [ECOS] having ecos working with third-party development environment?

OK guys,

McCraigor now have a gdb stub that runs on a win32 platform comminucates with both a parrallel port wiggler and GDB 
via TCP. I was writing such a beast and then someone pointed out to me that it had already been done. I have used it 
and once it is set up it works. I actually ran it on a win95 laptop and talked to it from a dual athlon machine running 
cygwin and Insight, was a bit slow but the network was only 10MB Coax. THe dual athon printer port does not function 
with the wiggler and I haven't tried the plug in card port I have, not enough hours in the day and a kitchen to build.
