Re: More information on crash with CVS sources
Hi Jonathan (and Gary),

Once I upgraded to redboot on the host, then main() started getting called
again, so that is OK. I need to do some more reading. I don't fully
understand yet how to compile the current version to work with stubs (as I
think I don't want to use redboot). I'm also getting close to the point
where I will have real hardware, so I'll need to port it.
The reason I've been working on several things at once is to get a feel of
how large the app will wind up, so that I could get my ROM and RAM budgets.
The networking layer takes up a vast amount of RAM, I'd like to try
decreasing that if I can.
I also need to read more on the network layer to better understand how it
all fits together (networking internals are not my forte).
Thanks for all the help; at the moment the ball is in my court and I have a
lot I can do without bothering you guys on the list :)
