Hi,

Please consider updating to VisualGDB 5.4 Preview 10. It should support the latest project layout from Android Studio. If your project uses different directories for APK files and libraries, please consider editing the .vgdbcmake file accordingly (see the OutputSubdirectory, AppSubdirectory and LibraryDirectory elements).

Hi,

VisualGDB takes the Android platform list from the <VisualGDB directory>\Rules\Android\AndroidPlatforms.xml file. If the platform you are using it not listed there, please consider editing the file, or using the latest VisualGDB 5.4 Preview 10 that includes the definitions for the latest platforms.

VisualGDB provides 2 different settings for the Android platforms: SDK platform and NDK platform (that might be different for older SDK/NDK versions). The SDK platform setting corresponds to the project.properties file used by Ant, while the NDK platform corresponds to the Application.mk file.

No problem. Let us know if you have further questions and we will be happy to help.

Hi,

The files you mentioned are generated by the STM32CubeMX tool and can be imported into VisualGDB as shown in this tutorial. They are indeed not a part of the basic project templates.

The “Inline GDB Stub Output” window contains text sent to the gdb session by the gdb stub (e.g. OpenOCD or Segger J-Link) and typically contains error and warning messages (sometimes repeating the regular stub output).

You can use the Memory window to view the memory contents at a specific address.

Hi,

Are you using the GCC ARM toolchain or the Keil ARM toolchain (that is supported since v5.4 Preview 10)?

@MystikReasons, Thanks for sharing this!

Hi,

Thanks for the logs. It looks like the ESP32 chip does not respond properly to JTAG commands and OpenOCD drops the connection:

Error: cpu0: esp32_fetch_all_regs (line 255): DSR (120034E5) indicates target still busy!

Please try erasing the target FLASH memory using esptool.py. If this doesn’t help, please share the OpenOCD log above with Espressif and check if they know any workarounds (we do not have access to the internal Espressif’s documentation, so it’s hard for us to provide any more specific help when it comes to communication issues between various components that are not maintained by us).

Hi,

It looks like you are using the ARM build of gdb that is not compatible with the ESP32 devices. Please use our ESP32 toolchain instead. You can find a detailed step-by-step tutorial here: https://visualgdb.com/tutorials/esp32/esp-idf/

Hi,

If you want to redirect the ESP_LOGI and similar functions to the app_trace console, you may need to enable some ESP-IDF configuration parameters. Please check the ESP-IDF documentation for details. If instead you want to view the output from the serial port, please use the Raw Terminal page of VisualGDB Project Properties (Custom edition or higher) or our free SmarTTY tool.

Hi,

Please try entering this command manually in the GDB Session window, or use VisualGDB Project Properties -> Additional GDB Commands page to have VisualGDB run it automatically.

Hi,

Sorry. If you are interested in trying out the new components logic, please feel free to contact our sales (give a link to this forum thread) and we will issue you a brief trial extension voucher, so you can try it out and decide if it’s worth upgrading to Custom. Please also consider trying this build: http://sysprogs.com/files/tmp/VisualGDB-5.4.10.2621.msi

It contains improved logic for checking Keil pack conditions, supports multiple component instances and creates configuration file templates using the same logic as the uVision IDE.

Hi,

Most likely the app_trace is not enabled for your project. Please try following this tutorial in order to enable it: https://visualgdb.com/tutorials/esp32/apptrace/

Hi,

This looks like a TCP communication error between VisualGDB and OpenOCD. Please try restarting your computer and disabling the firewall, as it might be blocking OpenOCD.

If the error persists, please try ignoring the error and starting a debug session. Then check both OpenOCD and gdb logs for more detailed error messages.

[support]

Hi,

Looks like you are using VisualGDB 5.3. In that version you can achieve the same effect by adding “-DKEY=VALUE” arguments to CMake command line. Alternatively please consider updating to VisualGDB 5.4 Preview 10 – we have redesigned many configuration dialogs and pages in that version to make them more intuitive and easy to use.

Hi,

Please use the setting under VisualGDB Project Properties shown below:
