    Hi,

    we work with the KeilARM µVision V5.24.2.0 and we use the ARM Clang Compiler V6.7 (LLVM)  (the differences can be found here: http://www.keil.com/appnotes/files/apnt_298.pdf)
    We develop software for a STM32F765 microcontroller.
    Now we would like to use the Visual Studio for editing and debugging the code.
    Is it possible to do this with the VisualGDB?

    I have found this tutorial:
    https://visualgdb.com/tutorials/arm/keil/
    But it is not clear if it is only for Keil GCC or also for ARM Clang V6.
    Thanks for an answer,
    Timo

    Hi,

    The mechanism used in the tutorial would work for any compiler that produces ELF files that can be debugged by gdb (ARM Clang V6 is compatible). However the specific steps (e.g. the exact compiler arguments or the linking order) could be different.

    We currently don’t have an out-of-the-box tutorial for the ARM Clang compiler, so we would advise trying to follow the regular Keil tutorial and making the necessary changes to account for the different compiler. If you encounter any difficulties along the way, feel free to post the details here and we will help you resolve any issues you encounter.

    Perfect. Thank you for your answer. I hope I will find some time to try this.
    I will reflect my results here. But I think I have no free time slot till September.
