Hello Jörg,

I have made the same experience with gdb that was based on MinGW.
No one is working correct if I have a MinGW based compiler. Only the
GNUARM toolchain is working. Take a look here:

and at part 2.

Hm I wonder whats the reason for this.
Do you think it has something to do with MinGW / Cygwin?
GDB and OpenOCD talk with each other over TCP/IP so there should
be no problem.

Yes, I already read your tutorial.
Seems like I got RAM/ROM-Debugging and FLASH programming
running with OpenOCD and Eclipse for STR71X.
Maybe I send you my files so you could have a look at
and put it on your site?

In the moment I have no example for debug in ROM, therefore
it is a good idea, if I can get your example.
