2011-09-02Implementation of a new jtag remote_bitbang driver.Richard Uhler
The driver sends ascii encoded bitbang commands over unix sockets or TCP to another process. This driver is useful for debugging software running on processors which are being simulated.

2010-03-05doc: not all debug adapters are "dongles"David Brownell
Talk more about "debug adapters" instead of only "dongles". Not all adapters are discrete widgets; some are integrated onto boards. If we only talk about "dongles" we rule out many valid setups, and help confuse some users (who may be using Dongle-free environments). Also start bringing out the point that JTAG isn't the only transport protocol, even though OpenOCD historically presumes "all is JTAG". (Not all debug adapters are JTAG adapters, or JTAG-only adapters.) Plus a few minor fixes (spelling etc) in the vicinity of those changes, and updates about FT2232H clocking issues (they can go faster than the older chips, and can support adaptive clocking).

2010-02-21Developer's Guide: refresh release proceduresDavid Brownell
Be a closer match to what I've actually done for the past few cycles. In particular, hold off pushing repository updates until after the packages are published, as part of opening the merge window, and mention the utility commands which actually create the archives. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2010-02-06Re-title Developer's GuideDavid Brownell
The Doxygen output was previously titled "OpenOCD Reference Manual", which was quite misleading ... the User's Guide is the reference manual which folk should consult about how to use the software. Just rename it to match how it's been discussed previously, and to bring out its intended audience: developers of this software. As a rule, Doxygen is only for folk who work with the code it documents. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2010-01-08Doc/examples: clarify usage messagesDavid Brownell
Update/bugfix the "hello" example; emphasize using EBNF syntax, matching the User's Guide. Correct the Texinfo style guide to say EBNF, not BNF. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>

2009-11-25update command handler documentationZachary T Welch
Adds sections on command registration and chaining, giving an overview to developers that want to use these features.
2009-11-17update command_handler documentationZachary T Welch
Improve the developer manual and primer sections which talk about writing command handlers. Notably, it documents the new CMD_* macros.
2009-11-13update developer manual for new typesZachary T Welch
Update the style guide and chase obvious references to structures that have been renamed.
2009-11-13add documention for writing built-in commandsZachary T Welch
This documentation update provides an introduction to the command handling facilities provided by command.[ch]. A primer walks the user through the elements of a pointedly pedantic module: src/hello.c. A summary of the API is provided in the OpenOCD Architecture section.
2009-11-04Release docs: fix notesDavid Brownell
We currently do something unusual: version codes in config.in get updated after the release, which means that "git describe" won't match up to development version labels. Comment that trouble spot. We can fix this by switching away from the major/minor/micro type release numbering, as various other projects have done. The major numbers basically don't tend to change, and doing a good job with micro versions is so annoying that they rarely change either.

2009-11-04Other files: stop referring to ChangeLog tooDavid Brownell
The ChangeLog idiom is redundant given any decent SCM. Time to phase it out here. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2009-11-04Tweak release docsDavid Brownell
Contrast releases to git snapshot tarballs. Mention that releases have some quality-improvement focus, with special non-"dev" version IDs. Explain more about version IDs, using "openocd -v" to see them, etc; Make release milestone info be less specific about timing, and presume we have both a merge window and an RC stage. Rework the release process information to match reality a bit more closely. Reference the version.sh script (in one place the wrong script was referenced). Bugfix branches get special treatment, while non-bugfix releases are more or less what *defines* being the mainline branch. Signed-off-by: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
2009-10-27Rewrite release script to use GIT.Zachary T Welch
Update documentation to reflect GIT methodology. Rewrite release.sh script to use appropriate process. With this update, tools/release.sh can be used for producing private release tags on local branches. The documentation still needs work, but their use for v0.3.x should help rectify the deficiences.
2009-10-08Change most in-tree references from SVN to GIT.dbrownell
Also, talk about "mainline" not "trunk". The release.txt and release.sh files need more updates. git-svn-id: svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk@2825 b42882b7-edfa-0310-969c-e2dbd0fdcd60
2009-10-07Change version labels to work better with GITdbrownell
- The guess-rev.sh script is now a tweaked version of "setlocalversion" as seen in Linux, U-Boot, and various other projects. When it finds source control support (git, hg, svn) it uses IDs from there. Else (specific to this project) it reports itself as "-snapshot", e.g. from gitweb. I verified this new "guess-rev.sh" script runs under Cygwin. - Also update the generic version strings to be like "0.3.0-dev" (during development) instead of the very long "0.3.0-in-development". These also show up in the PDF docs. For better tracking, we might eventually change these strings to include the version IDs too. - Change the startup banner version strings so they include the guess-rev output. Development and release versions with GIT will be like Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0-dev-00282-g7191a4f-dirty (2009-10-05-20:57) Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0 (2009-10-05-20:57) instead of the previous SVN-specific (even when using git-svn!) Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0-in-development (2009-10-05-01:39) svn:exported Open On-Chip Debugger 0.3.0 (2009-10-05-01:39) Release git-svn-id: svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk@2809 b42882b7-edfa-0310-969c-e2dbd0fdcd60

2009-07-06The late birth of the NEWS file also caused me to revisit the releasezwelch
process once again and reconsider it in some detail. In doing so, some further revisions to the process were required: 1) The URL of the repository is embedded in the released code. - The packages need to be created from the tagged branch. - The URL then points to where to get the tagged code. 2) Improve the instructions for NEWS handling. - NEWS file must be updated for each release; describe that process. - The NEWS file should be archived an recreated for each release. 3) Add detail steps for the berliOS release process. 4) Minor cleanups to release process doxygen markup. git-svn-id: svn://svn.berlios.de/openocd/trunk@2475 b42882b7-edfa-0310-969c-e2dbd0fdcd60
