hallo i am a novice for ecos,

sombody guide me how to use tcp/ip stack with ecos for nios 2.

altera provide hal device drivers that allow to access the hardware via the hal api ,like for ethernet device-lan91c111 ethernet mac/phy controller.

but lan91c111 component requires the microc/os-ii runtime

environment.

so how can i use ethernet device-lan91c111 in ecos environment or which things i have to consider when i want to use ethenet for data transfering using tcp/ip with ecos.

please assist me,

thanks,

I suggest that you follow the instructions, which can be found in the eCos for Nios.htm, which is in your altera\kits\nios2\components\ecos directory. In there are instructions to get a networked based example runnning.

I suspect your confusion is from looking at the code for the HAL device drivers. These are not used for eCos. The driver for the lan91c111 is found in altera\kits\nios2\components\ecos\packages\dev\eth\smsc\lan91cxx
