Hi,
I'm new to Eclipse, and seek some help with debugging embedded software.
As I understood, there is one main project, DSDP, which encapsulates some
other feature-driven projects. The one for device/on chip debugging is DD.
I've downloaded the latest Eclipse version (3.4) with CDT 5.0 and added DD
(1.0) to it.
What I can't understand is how I can debug with it. I know it should use
GDB for debugging, or at least I think so, but how can I make them work
together, download an executable to a target and run it?
Could someone please pour some light on how should I use this project, or
at least point me to some sort of a guide (if there is such)?
Thanks,
Vitaly

Maybe the information at http://wiki.eclipse.org/DSDP/DD/GDB provides a
starting point. It describes the steps for self-hosted development and
debugging a local sample application, but this might be useful as well.
Anyway, the basic steps are:
1. Create a C/C++ project with sources and binaries.
2. Create a launch configuration (under Run > Debug Configurations...)
of the right type, e.g. for remote debugging select "C/C++ Remote
Application (Experimental - DSF)" and enter the required information.
3. Click "Debug" to start the debugger
