For Windows CE devices. Pedro Alves breathed some life
back into these in June, but Chris Faylor rejected the
patch (with which I completely agree). It's a Windows-specific
remote protocol, and should use the GDB remote protocol
instead.
And now there's a Windows gdbserver as a start to that.
I think these files should be removed.
And, it should come as no surprise that I agree and I apologize
for introducing this misbegotten code into gdb to begin with.
(Sorry for taking such a long time to reply to this, I was internet-less
for a month.)
Looking at my patch now, I now fully agree with the rejection. Thank you
for rejecting it. :)
I have the WinCE gdbserver port 99% ready for submission. There are just
a few other things I would like to solve first: is the target
name that I have been calling arm-wince-mingw32ce at cegcc.sourceforge.net
ok, or should I rename it?; Some cleanups at the mingw32ce side, that are
needed for the gdbserver; Submit a few gdb fixes that are either global
or PE related.
Removing the current wince support now, means that I will have to add
a few things back again later (mostly autoconf stuff, and the
target header), but there's no problem with me, if it is wanted.
Else, I will remove them with the gdbserver port.
Cheers,
Pedro Alves
