Thanks for your reply.
What I want to do is to use another set of gcc development tools (for
example If I configured another tools set xxx-elf-gcc, xxx-elf-g++ .... I
want to use the new tool set as the development when I build the library)
for the new platform that's why I want to add a new platform.
Thanks again.
best regards!
james

Do you mean you have written a new HAL and you now what the GUI to be
able to use it in a configuration?
I've never actually done this, but i think you need to edit the
ecos.db in the packages directory. You see entries like
target ebsa285 {
alias { "Intel EBSA285 StrongARM board" ebsa }
packages { CYGPKG_HAL_ARM
CYGPKG_HAL_ARM_EBSA285
CYGPKG_IO_PCI
CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_ARM_EBSA285
CYGPKG_DEVS_ETH_INTEL_I82559
CYGPKG_IO_SERIAL_ARM_EBSA285
CYGPKG_DEVICES_WATCHDOG_ARM_EBSA285
CYGPKG_DEVS_FLASH_EBSA285
}
description "
The ebsa285 target provides the packages needed to run
eCos on an Intel EBSA285 StrongARM board."
}
I think you need to add a new one for your platform.
