Installing eCos 3.0 For Windows

Starting to make the environment for eCos installation and making
GNU toolchain for eCos.

I have followed the instruction given by eCos website.
http://ecos.sourceware.org/getstart.html
http://ecos.sourceware.org/build-toolchain.html

I have installed cygwin ver 1.7.

You can also use "cygcheck -srv" to get detailed information about cygwin
I did the following :

1.Re-installed cygwin ver 1.7 with eCos recommended packages
2.Installed ecos according to the instruction in ecos website
3.Getting the Configtool for windows from the link below:

  2. If you already installed the cygwin, try cygcheck -srv to get the version of your cygwin,

    See if you have these packages in your Cygwin, In addition to the packages which are installed by default from the Base category, it is essential to install the following packages:
    gcc, libexpat1, libmpfr1, libpng12, make, patch, sharutils, tcltk, wget
