Re: [ECOS] tm_basic for edb9301

[Daniel Gomes <danielcgomes at yahoo dot com dot br>]

 Thanks a lot for your advice, Bart. I set some
 numeric constants in the #defines used in tm_basic
while I was waiting for someone to answer me, and the
test cases for the "net" template compiled ok. I also
changed some minor things at if_ep93xx.c, the network
interface driver (it access the flash and was misisng
some ifdefs and some constant values). 

 I didn't ran the code in target, yet. Gonna do it
monday. Hope everything goes ok.
 
 Well, the EDB93xx port (_eval board that uses EP93xx
 SoC) is "Cirrus private", since Cirrus didn't
contributed it to the source base, yet. And it's very
 hard to download it without buying the EDB93xx kits.
 
 I'll try to contact Cirrus and ask them to do it so,
 since everybody has to win with such contribution ;)
 
 Since Cirrus code is derived from GPL work, I can
 sent it to interested  people in having a look, but
eCos maintainers are waiting to put it in source base
until Cirrus agrees to do so. 

 Best regards, Daniel.
