ARM平台下arm-gdb移植及编译步骤

建arm-gdb.
ncurse/gdb 均解压之下。
输出在output

1.移植 ncurse
  cd ncurses-5.7
  ./configure --host=arm-linux --target=arm-linux --prefix="$PWD/../output/arm-gdb-6.8"  --without-ada --enable-termcap --with-shared   

2.移植 gdb 6.8 


   ./configure --host=arm-linux --enable-shared --prefix="$PWD/../output/arm-gdb-6.8" LDFLAGS="-L$PWD/../output/arm-gdb-6.8/lib" --without-x --disable-gdbtk --disable-tui --without-included-regex --without-included-gettext


Cross-compile GDB 6.8 for Android
Step1: Download gdb and arm cross-compile toolchain.
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gdb/gdb-6.8.tar.gz
http://www.codesourcery.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/package3696/public/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/arm-2008q3-72-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2
The following assumes you extract the arm cross-compile toolchain into /usr/local/arm-2008q3/.
$export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/arm-2008q3/bin
 
Step2: Download and compile ncurses.
http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/ncurses/ncurses-5.7.tar.gz
$tar zxvf ncurses-5.7.tar.gz
$cd ncurses-5.7
$./configure --host=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --target=arm-none-linux-gnueabi --prefix="$HOME/install"
$sudo cp ~/install/lib/libncurses.a /usr/local/arm-2008q3/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/libc/usr/lib
$sudo cp ~/install/include/ncurses/ /usr/local/arm-2008q3/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/libc/usr/include -rf
This step is to fix the compile warning "configure: error: no termcap library found". Although GDB complain no termcap, actually it needs libncurses. All we did is to let arm-none-linux-gnueabi toolchain can find the library and header files. The misterious directory is found by:
$arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc -print-search-dirs
