RE: [cdt-debug-dev] The fate of the current GDB support in CDT

Definitely. One of the things I'm working on is figuring out a standard way
to do JTAG via GDB. Certainly Oyvind's work there is a great example of how
to do it. Look for this in CDT 4.0 for next year.

Hi All,
I work in an embedded tools company and we have many GDB users who use the
Eclipse CDT environment with Oyvind's additions/patches. I would love to see
CDT "fixed" to allow out-of-box support for embedded/remote GDB users and
for what it's worth wholeheartedly support Oyvind's suggestion. 

Having great embedded/remote GDB support in Eclipse CDT will increase the
user base, particularly, amongst folks using embedded linux.
