Hi,

Please find the answers to your questions below.

We did not explicitly test ESP8266 with Atmel-ICE. You can try it at your own risk by specifying the corresponding interface script to OpenOCD, but we cannot guarantee that it will work.

The source code of the ESP8266 library is not provided by Espressif, so it’s not a limitation of VisualGDB.

Yes, the embedded edition is enough for ESP8266.

Hi,

When you are creating an mbed project, VisualGDB uses the files from the official mbed distro on github. Perhaps the file is named differently there? Can you find a BLE example specifically for mbed?

[support]

Hi,

This looks like either CMake or the toolchain is corrupt. Please try re-downloading and re-installing both of them.

[support]

Hi,

Placing the file under RemoteSourceCache does not automatically upload it to the Linux machine. Please either upload it directly with SmarTTY or add a pre-build action to upload it during build.

Hi,

Most likely you need to specify some subdirectory. Please open VisualGDB Project Properties on the IntelliSense Setting page, check the list of include directories and search them and their subdirectories for the BLEDevice.h file. Then use the #include <subdirectory/BLEDevice.h> format to include it.

Hi,

The problem happens because “C:\Users\Hillel\Downloads\Raspberry PI\bcm2835-1.49\src\bcm2835.h” is a path on the Windows machine and it’s not accessible when you build on Linux. Please consider uploading the bsm2835 library somewhere on the Raspberry Pi (e.g. /opt/src), specifying the directory with the .h files in the include directories in VisualGDB Project Properties and simply including <bsm2835.h> without the full path.

This option is only available in the Custom and Ultimate editions. If you want to upgrade, simply contact our sales for a quote.

Hi,

The license key is tied to a specific computer, so moving it won’t help. Simply contact our support via the form on the website and we will reset your activation so that you can reactivate it on a new computer. If you don’t remember your activation key, just let us know your email and we will resend the key there.

No problem. Enjoy VisualGDB.

Hi,

Just update your STM32 BSP via Tools->Embedded Tools Manager. It should be version 3.4.

[support]

Hi,

You can check out this tutorial for step-by-step instructions on using lwIP with STM32: http://visualgdb.com/tutorials/arm/stm32/lwip/

[support]

Hi,

Yes, the beta has a few minor issues, but is generally stable. We have updated the BSP definition so that it will only show up as an update for the latest VisualGDB 5.1.

[support]

Hi,

The “AlternativeType” system is not recursive, so the definition in your case should look like this:

  <Type Name="std::map&lt;int32_t, std::string&gt;">
    <AlternativeType Name="HandleValueT"/>
  </Type>

We have just retested it on a simple MinGW project. What does the GDB session window show when you try evaluating your variable? Does it show any errors (you need to switch it to the “All GDB interaction” mode)?

[support]

Hi,

Does Visual Studio eventually unfreeze? Can you enable creation of GDB logs (via VisualGDB Project Properties -> Advanced GDB Settings) and see if the log keeps on growing when VS is frozen? If this does not immediately clarify the problem, please attach the log here or submit it to our support email.
