tell me one thing, is it easy to develop with eCos? I still haven't implemented a development environment, even though I followed the "Embedded Software Development with eCos" book step by step....
I think it's not so easy.... anyway... what do you guess to use as target pc and host... I mean my pc is an AMD processor with WinXP.... I can run all possible virtual machine with all possible OS..... Now (without changing my hardware or software) what should I use if I would only test my applications file that I make for my device (running on eCos)? I followed all instructions to build a bin file using vmWare template of the configuration tool, why doesn't it work?
