I am searching for a way to debug an ARM system (more specifically an arm926) without the use of an IDE. The code is compiled separately (in my case with a complex make system and the GNU compiler). Debug hardware is preferably a JLINK, but can also be a ULINK2. I regard the GDB solution (such as common under Eclipse) as unsatisfactory (I try to be friendly and not hurt anybody's feelings).
I know that with old ARM ADS and slightly less older ARM RVDS systems, the debugger is a stand alone program. These old tool chains, however do not support the latest version ELF/DWARF object format. RVDS 3.01 comes close, and only gives warnings as far as I can see, but I can't get it installed under Windows 7.
Current MDK seems to support both the JLINK and the ULINK2, but doesn't seem to have the debugger as a separate program. (please correct me when I'm wrong)
