[En-Nut-Discussion] Ethernut 5 + Eclipse tutorial

[Harald Kipp]

Hi Markus,

I further enhanced the debugging page

http://www.ethernut.de/en/tools/eclipse/confdebug.html

with a new chapter "Solving OpenOCD and GDB Problems"

Mh...may be the Turtelizer/OpenOCD package needs to be updated.

In any case

http://www.ethernut.de/en/hardware/enut5/openocd.html

should help to understand what is going on.

This is explained on that page in chapter "Optimizing Binary Downloads".

Same here, no idea. Seems to be harmless.

Thank _you_ for your patience.

Sometimes the OpenOCD/GDB/Eclipse combo is a bullheaded bastard, that
drives me crazy. But over the time I understand more details and found,
that actually everything is running quite well. Anyway, my writing is
behind and the documents still need some polishing.
