FTD2xx-dll should be on your openocd installation directory.

it's probably an environement variable that it's not set correctly. If
you want  to test, put that dll in your windows\system32 directory.

I guess you are looking for a simulator. A rather simple core-simulator
is included in gdb, try target sim. Should at least help during the
first steps.
Neither OpenOCD nor FTDI-driver will help you if you do not have a
JTAG-interface and a controller to connect to.

hi,,thanks.
do u have any idea how do i configure and run the simulator?

thanks

my openocd test viacmd line shows - FTD2XX.dll not found

please provide steps to rectify

Current OpenOCD versions should not need FTD2XX.dll any longer.

OpenOCD with ftdi driver requires WinUSB AFAIK.
