gdbserver for HPUX and compiling gdb on HPUX 10.20

[liu]

Hi there,

Has anyone got gdbserver working for HPUX? Does gdbserver support 
thread-debugging? Right now I am working on a project which has a very large 
source code hierarchy. I am compiling on one machine and test/run the executable 
on another machine with special connections. I don't want copy the source code 
to the test/run machine to do debug. Running gdbserver on test/run machine and 
gdb on my compiling machine seems to be the solution. If somebody has installed 
gdbserver for HPUX10.20, please tell me where I can download a copy.

To get gdbserver, I am trying to compile/install gdb-4.18 on HPUX 10.20 in my 
home directory. As suggested in HPUX.install file, I changed all these "prefix". 
When I do ./configure, I got the following message:

(pekiti)% ./configure
Configuring for a hppa2.0-hp-hpux10.20 host.

When I tried to run ./configure the 2nd time, I got

(pekiti)% ./configure
Configuring for a -hp-hpux10.20 host.
Invalid configuration `-hp-hpux10.20': machine `-hp' not recognized
Invalid configuration `-hp-hpux10.20': machine `-hp' not recognized
Unrecognized host system name -hp-hpux10.20

Could somebody please give me some hints? What is wrong?

Thanx in advance
