[ixp1200] microC development

Najati,

If you are using the workbench, the process for loading microC is the same
as the process for loading microengine assembly.  It's been a long time
since I've loaded any code without the microACE framework, so my memory is
rusty. :)  If your board is running Linux, you have to make sure that the
ue.o driver is loaded and that the rs_udebug process is running in the
background.  Both of these ship with the SDK and can be found in
ixasdk/bin/arm-be.  Then, in the workbench hardware settings on your
development system, say "Connect via Ethernet" and give it the IP address of
the debug port of the board.

If you are using VxWorks, the development system side is the same, but on
the board you need to run VxWorksNetApp.o.  There is a readme file with the
workbench that can walk you through this process.  It is called
VxWorksBuild_ReadMe.txt.

Hope this helps!

Aaron
