Has anyone got remote debugging working on CC6 adapter board?

Question

Hi,

I have a Connect Core 6 Early access kit, but am struggling to get remote debugging working in eclipse, has anyone managed to get this working, if so do you have any info that could help me get going?

I am using Ubuntu and attempting to use the Yocto toolchain as oppose to the stand alone toolchain.

I get as far as being prompted for login details (root, no password), but it then just times out.

I am however able to browse the file system in the 'Remote Systems' panel after logging in, in the Remote Systems Explorer perspective in Eclipse.

Thanks in advance,

David

looks like debugger is looking for the hello_world executable in the wrong place: /usr/bin
Command: ProcessesV1 start "usr/bin", "usr/bin/hello_world", ["usr/bin/hello_world"],
this hsould point to the location you actually deploying it - usually /tmp

It appears there is a script you have to run after doing a "bitbake dey-image-minimal -c poulate_sdk" that is not in the documentation, however I did do it on a training coarse yesterday - but can't remember where or what. I guess I will have to be patient and wait for the presentation with the details to become available...

For others who might want to know how this was resolved:

# cd ~/workspace/ccimx6sbc-training/tmp/deploy/sdk
# ./dey-eglibc-i686-dey-image-graphical-cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-toolchain-1.6.sh

Then when prompted:
Enter target directory for SDK (default: /opt/poky/1.6): /opt/dey-1.6/graphical/ccimx6sbc

You are about to install the SDK to "/opt/dey-1.6/graphical/ccimx6sbc". Proceed[Y/n]? Y

SDK has been successfully set up and is ready to be used.
