Re: Making eCos Configuration Tool on FreeBSD 6.1


Hi Jack,

So I'm trying to build the eCos configuration tool on my FreeBSD 6.1
system and I'm running into some interesting issues.  It seems like the
entire tcl/Tk detection system is either ancient, broken, or not written
to take into account how FreeBSD stores stuff.

Is it worth my time to change configure.in to support FreeBSD?  Or are
there other similar issues littered through the code?  Please tell me I
am not tilting at windmills expecting this to work.  Thanks!

I would recommend that you use the Linux binary of the configuration tool. This will propably be relatively easy to get running (you may have to hunt for some of the libraries the config tool depends on) and there are no negative side effects of running Linux binaries on FreeBSD.

Best regards,
Hans
