Thanks Jesse,

Maybe I'll do the same thing and create some stubs.

Please don't give up on the Legacy Mode of NiosII. It's (relative) simplicity and learning curve and footprint are going to appeal to a lot of engineer types.

The subtle improvements to gdb/Insight like remembering breakpoints, putting the code browser on the main toolbar, and better support for stdio while debugging are great.

Thinking back, I probably could have sent printf's to the serial port while debugging through the JTAG, but the N2 setup makes it easy and natural to do so. I like it very much.

I do get an occasional JTAG hiccup that I'm hoping the new USB Blaster will solve, but overall I'd say I'm quite pleased with the improvements.

Regards,

Ken
