Hi,
Unfortunately it’s hard to provide any help without seeing the full context: OpenOCD output, screenshots of your settings, screenshot of your About window to show the current VisualGDB state. Please attach those and we will try to help you.
The one from the LIBRARY_NAMES is the correct one (you would also need to remove it from the stm32.xml file as otherwise it will get regenerated).
std::array<> should not be related to compactcpp. Please feel free to post the errors you get and we will help you resolve them.
Hi,
The <offset> files are generated when you debug your program first. You can also use the ESPImageTool.exe from the <toolchain>\esp8266-bsp directory to generate the files or program them via the bootloader.
Hi,
OK, thanks for the log, that explains it. Looks like something is totally wrong with the temporary directory and this breaks the .Net framework. It is surprising it didn’t affect any other programs.
Please try deleting all files in the temporary directory and run chkdsk on the drive containing it.
OK, sorry about that. We have added another logging layer on top: http://sysprogs.com/files/tmp/VisualGDB-5.3.15.1916.msi (the link will become available in ~10 minutes)
Please open the View->Other Windows->VisualGDB Diagnostics Console window and enable logging before opening VisualGDB Project Properties.
Hi,
Thanks for confirming this. Looks like some internal VisualGDB component is throwing an exception and VisualGDB is not handling it properly. Please try this build:
http://sysprogs.com/files/tmp/VisualGDB-5.3.15.1915.msi
It should display a meaningful error message in this case.
Hi,
It could be that your license upgrade did not get applied properly. Please try re-entering the key via Help->About VisualGDB.
Hi,
Thanks for the updated gif. Looks like you don’t have the “Reformat code when ‘}’ is pressed” enabled in the C++ editor settings, so VisualGDB is using an alternate simplified mechanism to layout the brackets.
We have added a workaround to this build that will fix the location of the closing brace: http://sysprogs.com/files/tmp/VisualGDB-5.3.15.1913.msi
Hi,
We would recommend calling the MessageBox() function from your C++ MinGW code at the beginning of the test. This should pause the test displaying the message box. Then you can use Task Manager to locate the PID of the test process and then simply attach to it with VisualGDB (you can also display the PID in the message box itself).
Hi,
The ESP8266 images consist of several non-consequent blocks that need to be programmed at different addresses in the FLASH memory following the “<Project Name>-<Offset>.bin” syntax. The “<project name>.bin” file is generated by the regular objcopy tool that is not aware of the ESP8266 specifics and should be ignored.
Hi,
For a stand-alone project please simply remove “compactcpp” from the list of libraries in the first page of VisualGDB Project properties.
Hi,
Wow, this looks like something in the installation/configuration gone horribly wrong. We have just re-tested a clean R7 toolchain install, but could not reproduce any crashes. The OpenOCD output also mentions a different build date:
C:\SysGCC\esp32\esp32-bsp\OpenOCD\bin\openocd.exe -c "gdb_port 8786" -c "telnet_port 8787" -f interface/ftdi/olimex-arm-usb-ocd-h.cfg -c "adapter_khz 3000" -f target/esp32.cfg -c "echo VisualGDB_OpenOCD_Ready" Open On-Chip Debugger 0.9.0 (2017-08-05) Licensed under GNU GPL v2 For bug reports, read http://openocd.org/doc/doxygen/bugs.html adapter speed: 3000 kHz Info : auto-selecting first available session transport "jtag".

It looks like you might have accidentally started an incorrect version of OpenOCD (or accidentally copied it over the version in the R7 toolchain). Our best advice would be to delete the toolchain directory and try installing it again. Please also ensure you are using the latest VisualGDB 5.3R5 (early pre-release v5.3 builds are not compatible with the latest toolchains).
Hi,
It looks like when you go to the new line with VisualGDB, it inserts double indentation, so the logic that is supposed to remove it when ‘{‘ is typed, only removes a half of it.
It also looks like some other VS extension is highlighting the indentation in red color; perhaps the same extension is responsible for inserting extra spaces?
We have also added extra logging to this build: http://sysprogs.com/files/tmp/VisualGDB-5.3.15.1912.msi
Please try re-running the case shown on Working2.gif and post the output of View->Clang IntelliSense Diagnostics Console here. It will explain what is going on.
Hi,
This happens because the newer gcc includes optimizations that make the libcompactcpp library unnecessary, so it was removed from the latest release. Please try opening VisualGDB Project Properties and clicking the regenerate button (it it’s not shown, try changing any of the MCU-related settings and restoring it back). This should rebuild all toolchain-specific settings and remove the references to the missing library.
