Getting compilation details

Embedded software

You may run your description file with -v option. You'll get compilation commands echoed on the terminal for the embedded software.

Using GDB to debug embedded software

You may use GDB on your platform, replace your processor implementation by a GDB-wrapped one:

# Replace
hard.create( 'caba:iss_wrapper', 'cpu0', iss_t = 'common:mipsel', ident = 0 )
# by
hard.create( 'caba:iss_wrapper', 'cpu0', iss_t = 'common:gdb_iss', gdb_iss_t = 'common:mipsel', ident = 0 )

Then you may use GDB ​wiki:Tools/GdbServer on muteks/soft/bin.soft binary.
