Hello,
I was wondering how straightforward it would be to write an extension for GDB to use the parallel port to connect to a target instead of the serial port? (Changing only a few files? Many files? Which ones?, etc.)
Now I'm not really very familiar with GDB and before I jump in at the deep end, I was wondering if any of you guys could give me any pointers? At the moment I'm just having a read through the User Manual and the Internals Manual and looking at some of the C files that look like they might be of some help - can any of you guys point me in the right direction?
Any help or advice you could offer would be much appreciated.
Have you tried simply doing "target remote /dev/lpt"? It's worth a shot.
If it turns out that doesn't work because the parallel device needs
special handling, that can be done pretty easily. Someone asked about this regarding USB recently:
