Have you used it successfully? Helios has that too (since early 2011?), but
I've never got it running. I've just updated to indigo and still can't make

I ran a few tests yesterday and it worked fine.
ubuntu was easier to setup than windoze, but both worked.
The gdb connect line used was | openocd as --pipe is now deprecated.
Try putting all the options in openocd.cfg - gdb_port pipe first. When
we switch to using pipes then openocd will automatically use
openocd.log

Thanks for that Spen, great to know it can work. I had already tried
with gdb_port pipe instread after seeing hte deprecation notice in the
log, although it didn't make any difference. I also hadn't tried moving
all those config's into the openocd.cfg file, and yeah it makes it a
little neater, but didn't fix it, I still had it hanging at the same
point. I haven't been getting a log file though that I can find in pipe
mode without explicitly setting one.
Had a random thought, and tried it with sourcery-g++-lite's gdb rather
than my usual yagarto gdb, and all of a sudden it worked! So there's
something different/wrong with the yagarto gdb in pipe usage, haven't
exported full debug logs for both gdb's yet to see where the problem is
though.
Only problem is, it's incredibly slow, unusably slow. A single step can
take 5 seconds, where on a normal tcp connection with same configs feels
close to instant, so maybe about 1/4 of a second. Did your windows one
behave better? If so, do you know what version/release of gdb you used?
One other point, do you know whether you can get openocd to add it's own
program directory to the search path for the source [find ...] lines?
It'd be great to only need the openocd.cfg file in the eclipse project
dir, and have it reference the interface and target files from the
common openocd folder. Otherwise I'll likely copy the contents of the
files into my openocd.cfg rather than have a copy of target and
interface folders in all my project folders.
I hope I can get pipe working, I've wanted to use this for ages, just
makes the toolchain feel a lot more professional.
Cheers,
Andrew
