STUCKED!! Issues with ESP32 R.16 toolchain and VisualGDV 5.4

[lzambonelli @mexage]

Hi Support,

My project (ESP-IDF), after updating both toolchain (R16) and VisualGDB (4.2) does not compile anymore.

At first i had to change manualli project file .vgdbproj and changed to 3.2 path, otherwise VS2017 wasn’t able to open project

<IDFCheckout>
<Version>release/v3.2</Version>
<Subdirectory>esp-idf/v3.2</Subdirectory>
</IDFCheckout>

 

 

Then, i’ve cleaned solution, rebuilt and i’m getting

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error undefined reference to `_loader_text_start' SimplyConnect C:/Projects/Mexage/xxx-IOT/source/Debug/bootloader/bootloader_support\libbootloader_support.a(esp_image_format.o)

Do you have any idea?

My team cannot work with that issue!

 

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Please try doing a full project rebuild (Build->Rebuild All). If this doesn’t help, please try creating a new project and if it doesn’t built, reinstall the toolchain.

If nothing helps, you can install the previous ESP-IDF (v3.1) via VisualGDB Project Properties -> ESP-IDF Settings. Simply use the “install” button on the ESP-IDF version selection control.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

Already reverted to previous version. Everything works  good

Hope to get the fixed update to R16 as it will be available. It’s strange , because i had the same issue when you updated from 3.0 to 3.1.

 

Regards

Leonardo

The issue is likely caused by some internal changes between different ESP-IDF versions. Normally doing a full rebuild should fix this (if you can confirm this, we can update VisualGDB to trigger a full rebuild automatically if the project was previously built with a different toolchain).

Please let us know whether a rebuild fixes the problem. If not, please also try creating a new project with the new toolchain and let us know if that works.
