RE: Debug PowerPC application with GDB over network on a i386

Hi Raphael,

I've used DDD on an x86 host, talking over rsh to
a gdb running on the powerpc target.

It works, but sometimes the communication between the
host and the target isn't very responsive-- I think
there's probably buffereing issues involved.

To try it out, just read the DDD docs. I believe the
invocation of ddd is something like

ddd --host USER@TARGET BINARY


Frank.

hi all,

is it possible to use a graphical GDB frontend, e.g. DDD, on a i386 and
debug application running on the PowerPC hardware where gdb is
running too.
I'm not talking about debugging the kernel, only simple applications!
I thing about using the LAN interface for both GDB's... Using someone
such a environment successfully here ?!
