Re: newbie questions


1. How can i run the tests if i do not have my HW so
far?

If you don't have any target hardware and you just wish to become familiar with eCos then I'd suggest using the Linux synthetic target. This will produce binaries which will run (natively) on your Linux box.

See part XXV (eCos Synthetic Target) in the eCos reference manual.

3. My libtarget.a is 8.5MB. Am I doing something wrong
here?

Probably not. I have one here that's 14 Mbyte. Remember that it contains loads of debugging and other information which will be stripped from the final application.
