Re: EPICS and WindRiver's Tornado

Rosemary,

Yes, it works fine. If you want to use the Tornado tools you need to
have symbol table sychronization on the target server and on the
target. The target also needs a path to the VxWorks license server.

You also, of course, need to fiddle with configAll.h. My additions to
the included packages are:

> /* Support moved from the default set of excluded facilities */
> #define INCLUDE_SECURITY      /* shell security for network access */
> #define INCLUDE_SYM_TBL_SYNC  /* synchronize host and target symbol tables */
> #define INCLUDE_NFS             /* nfs package */
> 
> /* The following are all the functions implied by INCLUDE_CONFIGURATION_5_2
>    except INCLUDE_DEBUG. INCLUDE_DEBUG conflicts with the INCLUDE_WDB
>    definition required by the Tornado tools */
> #define INCLUDE_LOADER          /* object module loading */
> #define INCLUDE_NET_SYM_TBL     /* load symbol table from network */
> #define INCLUDE_RLOGIN          /* remote login */
> #define INCLUDE_SHELL           /* interactive c-expression interpreter */
> #define INCLUDE_SHOW_ROUTINES   /* show routines for system facilities*/
> #define INCLUDE_SPY             /* spyLib for task monitoring */
> #define INCLUDE_STARTUP_SCRIPT  /* execute start-up script */
> #define INCLUDE_STAT_SYM_TBL    /* create user-readable error status */
> #define INCLUDE_SYM_TBL         /* symbol table package */
> #define INCLUDE_TELNET          /* telnet-style remote login */
> #define INCLUDE_UNLOADER        /* object module unloading */

Cheers,

Nick
