Date: Thu, 31 Dec 1998 12:07:02 -0500 From: Stuart Adams <sja@brightstareng.com> I want to do remote debugging of applications on an embedded Linux target. I can't run gdb on the target in some scenarios due to memory limitations. (The embedded target is self-contained an boots from 2 MB flash memory). Cool... Has anyone done any work in this area ??? (It seems that at the very least it would require a remote version of ptrace.) Check out gdbserver, in gdb/gdbserver. It's basically a little proxy for ptrace, it makes the ptrace calls, and communicates with the host GDB via the standard remote protocol (target remote or target extended-remote). Stan
