Re: Can't set architecture to m32c on m32c-elf-gdb.


Hello Nick,

Though I've not tried your patch yet,  it also will works fine.

But I feel my patch is better.
Renesas is planning to ship R32C series. They have a lot of extensions but basically based on M32C.
R32C aims automovice areas, so it's possible they have some custom variations.
I think it's better to specify architecture by printable name like cpu-arm.c

Indeed, I'm mistaken about that.

Thanks,
