Debugging embedded device

Question

I work on an embedded device on powerPC with WindRiver linux. Almost always we debug using the logs. Sometimes gdb, which is really helpful.

But, the process I debug runs with more than 70 threads. Using commands to move through the code is a cumbersome process, installing a GUI front end is not an option.

Is there any way that I can have an IDE like ECLIPSE, Netbeans to debug the process, which is running on this embedded device?

Yes. Many people debug embedded devices with Eclipse, by using gdbserver.
