  • Gdbserver for linux

    Hello

    I'm a thinking about buying the Segger JLink. Is there any way to run gdbserver for JLink on a linux workstation?

    I know this question has been answered with "No - working on it" in the past (for example here: J-Link and Linux gdbserver).
    But that was a while ago, any news?

    Another thought / feature request: Since you already got network on the JLink, why don't you (Segger) port gdbserver to the J-link so any OS capable of running GDB could connect to it via ethernet.

    Best Regards
    Axel
  • Hello Axel,

    The J-Link GDB Server Linux Version is still under development.
    It is scheduled to be released this quarter (Q2).

    It is also planned to port the GDB Server to J-Link Pro, but there is no exact schedule yet.


    Best regards,
    Alex

    We run Linux only here at work so I really need gdbserver in order to use the J-Link.
    How will I know when it is released? Is there any mailing list is similar (perhaps an announcement in this thread which I monitor :) ) or will I have to monitor the homepage?

  • Hello Axel,

    You can subscribe to the J-Link newsletter (segger.com/jlink.html)
    in order to be informed if a new release version of the J-Link software is released.

    If a beta version with J-Link GDB Server for linux is released, I will post it in this thread.

    Best regards,

    Hi

    Is this the same as the gdb server : J-Link Beta Software version for Linux
    Or is it only a stand alone tool? I could not understand how this tool should be able to set up a server even though it do detect my jlink and board..
    This is the J-Link commander. I am waiting for a gdb server for linux too. Now we have Q3. Are there any news regarding the linux version of the gdb server?

    Here is another voice that would like a GDB server for linux. Currently using the Windows version in a Virtual Windows session, but this is a clunky solution as all of the development tools are running under linux & eclipse.

    Thanks to you at Segger who may be working on a Linux GDB Server. It will be appreciated. We really like your J-Link devices, especially the Pro version. There was a comment sometime back that one day the J-Link Pro might incorporate a GDB server. Is this still in the plan?
  • Hi,

    I know this is an old thread but i will point the same subject.

    I'm thinking about buying J-Link or J-Link Pro. But my development environment is in Linux Host machine. I want to debug natively in Linux. (neither windows debug server nor a virtual windows host) As I see J-Link GDB Server Linux Version should be released in 2009 Q2. Now we're in 2010 Q1 But i can't find it anywhere! Is it released or not? If not what is your realistic estimation?

    Thank you
  • Hi all,

    We have just released a new version for Linux in which also a command line version of the GDB Server is available:
