Update ESP32 IDF SDK?

[mesh]

Hello,

How do I update the ESP32 IDF package provided by Visual GDB to the latest in the ESP32 IDF github repo? I tried merging, but build errors resulted. Any advice or best practices/process for updating the Visual GDB ESP32 IDF package?

Thank you!

Hi,

The original ESP-IDF does not usually build out-of-the-box without adjusting several things manually. E.g. several different components inside it have include files with the same name and and hence expect different order of include directories.

We do have an open-source tool that converts the original ESP-IDF into a VisualGDB package, so you can try using it at your own risk: https://github.com/sysprogs/BSPTools/tree/master/generators/esp32

We have also just released an updated ESP32 toolchain that is based on the final ESP-IDF release (v1.0), so updating to it will automatically switch your projects to a newer ESP-IDF.
