GoAhead Webserver

[Altera_Forum]

hello there, 

 anyone know how to port the goahead webserver to NIOS2?  Thnx

Hi Preloader, 

 Based on the docs, GoAhead already supports ecos ... but I've never actually tried it. Did you download and review the source and accompanying docs yet?  Regards, --Scott

Preloader, 

 Go Ahead is already ported to eCos.  A web server is high enough level that there will be nothing that requires porting to a processor architecture. You will just need to modify the makefiles (or whatever go ahead uses) to use the Nios II toolchain.

Hi ruglybloke, 

 yes you are right. goahead webserver is ported to ecos. There is a makefile example with an arm platform, but i do not know how to modify the makefile for my nios2 platform.   There are three lines in the makefile which have to be modify:  PKG_INSTALL_DIR := /work/net_test/install COMMAND_PREFIX := arm-elf- CFLAGS := -mcpu=arm7tdmi -D__EDB7209 -D__EDB7212 $(DEBUG)  Can you tell me how the CFLAGS have to be set?  Thnx

If you follow the instructions in the tutorial you can look at the command line options 

 COMMAND_PREFIX := nios2-elf-  The CFLAGS will vary depending upon your hardware these will work for a Cyclone part  CFLAGS = -g -O3 -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -fvtable-gc -DSYSTEM_BUS_WIDTH=32 -mhw-mul -mno-hw-mulx -mno-hw-div  If you have a Stratix part or a hardware multiply/divide unit you may wish to change these to use the multiply unit and generate faster code   nios2-elf-gcc --help will provide more information on what the options mean

You need to find out where these are in your include files. Short of actually doing the job for you it&#39;s hard to be any more helpful I&#39;m afraid.

I am trying to compile Go-Ahead server code 2.18 in ARM. An error is occured "stdint.h", line 35: serious error: c2933e: type disagreement for 'int8_t'. To avoid this error stdint.h file in code is renamed to 1_stdint.h and comilation is done. After this also strangely same error "stdint.h", line 35: Serious error: C2933E: type disagreement for 'int8_t' is given by compiler. Can anyone help on this issue.
