    Well, yes and no. As far as VS code goes, the answer is still a hard no. VS Code is rather limiting in terms of GUI integration, so supporting it would mean competing against a plethora of free alternatives, while being largely limited by the VS code framework, and hence not being much better.

    If you know any successful paid extensions to VS Code, it would be interesting to have a look, but if there aren’t many of them, it somewhat proves our point.

    The good news is that the cross-platform GUI frameworks have finally caught up, so we have been working on our own cross-platform shell, that supports Windows, Linux and Mac, while being built mostly on the same tech stack as VisualGDB. It will first come out as a separate product focused on a few AI-specific tasks, and will then start gradually receiving functionality from VisualGDB. Stay tuned, the first preview build of the new product is a couple of weeks away!

    Sorry for the delay. We have rechecked the logic behind BSP_SOURCE, BSP_EXPLICIT_LOCATION and loading of the regular BSPs, and it looks like the regular BSP loading is not necessary when either one is set:

    if((NOT ("${BSP_EXPLICIT_LOCATION}" STREQUAL "")) OR (NOT ("${BSP_SOURCE}" STREQUAL "")) )
        set(_load_regular_bsps 0)
    endif()

    We have updated the code on our side and will include it in the next VisualGDB update after it passes all tests.

    Thanks for confirming your license.

    You can find a tutorial on custom actions here: https://visualgdb.com/tutorials/custom/steps/. The tutorial is rather old, but the concept of custom actions hasn’t changed since it was published.

    Hi,

    This could be a bug in the gdb, or some quirks of the build system that might be solvable with path substitutions, but you would need to understand what path format would work with the underlying debugger.

    We would advise first getting a simple breakpoint to work by running gdb manually and experimenting with different path formats. Once this works, configuring VisualGDB to use the same path syntax should be straight-forward. If not, let us know the path format that works manually, and we will help you configure VisualGDB to use it.

    @bflannery, yes and thanks for pointing it out. There is a bug in VS that sometimes stores the wrong colors, although it happens very rarely, so we could never fully reproduce it.

    We have a page describing it here: https://visualgdb.com/documentation/colors/

    We have to follow the market demand. We will initially offer both versions side-by-side, and will then decide based on the amount of users interested in each one.

    Sorry, based on what we see, you do not have a valid license and tried tampering with the activation system. We will not be able to help you.

    VisualKernel is a much more niche product that VisualGDB. It solves a narrow subset of problems that are relevant to a smaller number of users, hence it is not updated as regularly.

    Based on the feedback we receive, many users would appreciate a direct way to run VisualKernel on Linux and not have to install Windows + Visual Studio in a virtual machine.

    We are working on a technology that will allow doing that, while retaining all advanced features (e.g. tracing). It will be first integrated into VisualGDB and another brand-new cross-platform product, and will then make its way into VisualKernel. Until then, we are not planning to do any major VisualKernel updates.

    VisualGDB is already integrated into the Visual Studio theming engine. It picks up colors for common controls to match what Visual Studio itself uses, and follows the dark/light themes. Hence, when the new UI is selected, most of the VisualGDB controls should automatically pick up most of the new colors. We will then monitor the popularity of the new GUI, and will gradually resolve the remaining inconsistencies over future releases.

    As for redesigning all of our GUI using a new design system, it would not be very practical, as our users would rather prefer new functionality and compatibility with the latest devices, than a lengthy redesign bringing no new functionality, while delaying functional improvements.

    Based on what we can see in this thread, this configuration triggers some bugs in KGDBoE (module that supports kernel debugging over network). If you would like to get this working, you would need to debug KGDBoE itself and understand why it is not working. VisualKernel merely provides a GUI on top of KGDBoE and cannot automatically fix the way it works.

    Thanks for reporting this. We will monitor the feedback from our paid users, and will consider investigating it further if they confirm it.
