what my program execute but i dont have a large budget

Hi ,

I have been reading the gdb docs and as i interpret them
i need to link the gdb stub file with my excecuteable
to do remote debugging.  is this correct?


Yes you do.

do you have any experience with this?


I have not used *-stub.c for any debugging in a while now. I must say however that if you were using linux / uClinux on your embedded system , you could choose to use gdbserver instead in which case the linking is not required.

cheers
Ramana
