<DIV><FONT size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>I use Cygwin on Windows NT 4.0 (SP5) as host development
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>environment for RTEMS. The cygwin system and GDB
source are</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>downloaded </FONT><FONT size=2>from OAR corp's FTP
site.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>(cygwin-rtems-20000207.tgz & </FONT><FONT
size=2>cygwin-rtems-install.zip,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>gdb-4.18.tar.gz &
gdb-4.18-rtems-20000126.diff.gz)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>But I can't build GDB for powerpc by using "./bit_gdb
powerpc"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>command.The sam</FONT><FONT size=2>e error also occured when
building GDB for i386.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>It seems the Cygwin lacks the term library, but where to
get</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>the library and how to add it to Cygwin ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>(On the FTP site, there are some RPMs already built for
i386</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>under cygwin directory, but there are no GDB for any
processor</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>and no RPMs for powerpc. I hope if somebody could
upload all </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>these missing </FONT><FONT size=2>tools to the FTP site
!)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Any help is appreciated !</FONT></DIV>
