The next release of egcs, due out any day now, is supposed to include support for the 750. Hopefully we'll know more when we get a chance to play with it... > 2.

Should be straightforward, using the standard cross build procedure. Again, we don't really know until we try it. > 3. Is cross-gdb currently supported for this target? I believe the standard release of gdb would support it, provided you had a stub running in the target and some way (RS-232 serial, or TCP/IP network) of communicating with it. > 4.

However I don't believe support currently exists in gdb for this type of interface, a back-end driver would need to be written. _______________________________________________ New CrossGCC FAQ: http://www.objsw.com/CrossGCC _______________________________________________ To remove yourself from the crossgcc list, send mail to crossgcc-request@cygnus.com with the text 'unsubscribe' (without the quotes) in the body of the message.
