[ECOS] Problem when using ARM E7T all template for building eCOS (I need TCP/IP stack support)

[Simon]

Mr. Huang,
    I think you maybe went to the wrong direction. TCP/IP is not the major
problem you have.
The problem is the network driver package for that samsung chip.
I'm sorry I can not answer your question right now yet. 'Cause I'm not in
office and
quite busy these days. As what I said in last mail about this, you can
give it a try on other plateform which support network driver, i.e. i386
with i82559/8/7.
And take a look at ecos.db and have a comparison between two plateform to
find
out the difference. I remembered I did the same then. Of course, I believe I
left some clue
in my harddisk of the working pc.
    As I knew, you have to know something about CDL and be familiar network
driver
programming of eCOS and how to modify .db file. Some of them have been
documented
almost well. But the rest is no. For example, in CDL document, the last
chapter is about templete.
There seems only  "TBD" showed there. But it's ok. 'Cause have a look at
templete files and
will know some without any document. I believe it's quite easy, not hard.
    I will be back to my office in couple of days.
     BTW, are you Chinese? From where? Taiwan, Singapore, or other place
like China?
I guess that you are not Taiwaner who is from Taiwan, but Chinese from other
else.
Give you a sentence and please bear in your mind deeply:
"Do not think it hard, and then it is quite easy at all!" ---- Simon said
No document there, but things still can be done.

Dear Simon:
   I am so sorry to disturb you. but I still can't make any progress on my
project. I still can't build the TCP/IP eCOS for my ARM E7T  board. I have
got a third party from
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/ecos-discuss/2001-07/msg00961.html . I try to
have the TCP/IP stack into my eCOS configuration but always lots of conflict
can't be solved. Could you please help me? Thank you very much.


(by the way is that the TCP/IP stack just the higher layer network support
that can be used by any platform if that platform have the network
support( hardware and hardware layer driver)?
Thanks

Best regards!

james

Sure, you can do that.
'Cause I did that as I said before.
But I left all stuff about this in my office and
I can not tell you how to do right now.
I do not remember where to be modified such that
you can load the network package on and develop
your ethernet driver.
Let me have a sleep at first. after entering my office,
I will try to dig out any piece of info "how..."

I just need to use the TCP/IP support function (higher layer support) and I
am making my own device driver for the transceiver and hardware. So is there
any way I can do it?

It's not supported out of the box since the standard E7T board does
not have the necessary transceiver and connectors.
