Hi Steve,

I only tested rproxy on Windows Me, Windows XP and RedHat. People are using it successfully on Windows 2000, though.

Hmm, sounds like it should work then.

You are doing the wrong thing with telnet, but it has highlighted a bug in rproxy. When you get the record back from rproxy, you should respond with "+" to acknowledge it. Anything else will result in the last packet being repeated. The bug you hightlighted means the repeat is incorrect. This is irrelevant in normal use, as packets are normally acknowledged OK by gdb. This is not, therefore, your problem. It is fixed in CVS now, though.

Ok, I also had some problem building gdbproxy on Redhat 8.0, the automake is somehow different, it complains about ./depcomp being missing. I got it to build by forcing it but it also has the same problem (last night), Ill try it again.

I have no idea what your problem is, but it sounds like either gdb or your use of it is wrong. Did you build gdb yourself, or are you using one of the tested binaries? What did you use to connect to rproxy? The correct command would be:

I built gdb on RedHat 8.0, but the pre-build binaries for Win 2K also have the same problem.

   target remote localhost:2000

Ok, that was the problem I was using 'target msp430 localhost:2000' that works now.

Quite nice. :-)

I really should get around to distributing updated binaries for gdbproxy this week. The version I have now has several little improvements. I need to find time for the more major improvements too.....

What are the major improvements you would like to do?

I helped on this project http://avarice.sourceforge.net/ when Scott Finneran was debugging the protocol to the AVR ICE. I thought about hacking the libHIL.so to get out what commands the gdbproxy is using send to the FET then reverse engineering the protocol.

Thanks,
