[lwip-users] help getting started with lwIP

[John Taylor]

I am trying to port lwIP to run on two Hitachi H8s eval boards
(edosk2674 and esp-hbdb01) using the open source RTOS XMK.  I have
several questions before I can get started.

1) What is the latest and/or stable release of lwIP and how do I get it?
I can not tell from browsing the CVS server what to tag to use.

2) When getting a "version" of lwIP out of CVS, how do I
match-up/coordinate the versions of the lwip, contrib, and lwiphtml
modules?  Browsing the CVS server, I noticed that there did not appear
to a single tag that "worked" for all modules.  Caveat: I am not a CVS
user, so it may just be pilot error.

3) What is good example for implementing the 'netif' interface for my
target boards?  Going through the code, the example/skeleton file for
netif has comments about not being in sync with the latest version of
etherap.c

4) Should I want for next stable release?  There is not a rush for port
and if there is pending interface changes, with respect to platform
dependent portions, I rather wait a few months then go through the
porting exercise twice.

TIA
