Folks, I am trying to build a simple elf file parsing tool. Tool runs on a host, but wants to be able to parse core files from embedded architectures. host = x86 embedded = arm In order to parse the embedded core file, the tool needs to see and read the embedded kernel header files. I would guess a version of gdb that runs on a host and debugs a different target has similar issues. Are there any "best-practices" for configuring/building/using gcc in this manner? This isn't strictly a "cross-compilation" build of gcc. Cheers, T.mike
