Remote Debug over TCP/IP

[st-user]

Hi

Can you please add functionality to connect to a remote open ocd server? So that I can remotely debug within my company network.

I understand that you could just use a TCP/IP J-Link although pretty much all the engineers at my company use an ST-Link.

Thanks

Hi,

This is already supported via VisualGDB Project Properties -> Debug Settings -> Full-Custom Mode.

Simply specify “–interpreter mi $(TargetPath)” in the gdb arguments and use the “target remote <host>:<port>” as the target selection command. This will connect gdb to a remote target.

You can also automate running the remote OpenOCD instance via the Custom Debug Steps page of VisualGDB Project Properties.
