Update : I managed to get it to work after I switched the toolchain from raspberry-gcc4.9.2. (Jessie) to raspberry-gcc4.6 (Wheezy). Maybe there is something wrong in the Jessie toolchain?
When I first started to play with VisualGDB I was using it with a Raspberry Pi Model A and a WiFi dongle to provide the network interface. It was really slow then. But in the meantime I started using a Raspberry Model B+ and an actual ethernet cable connection. It is very fast now. Not sure if it was the Wifi connection that made it so much slower or not, but I’m quite happy with how it works now.
Never mind. I figured it out after a bit of scratching around. It is done in VisualGDB Project Properties -> Project Settings.
Thanks for your reply. I’ve been playing a couply of days now with VisualGDB and its really a great tool. The only negative feedback I can give so far:
It takes very long from the time you click the start button, until the code is actually running on the Raspberry. Anything to speed this up would be a big plus. Also if there could at least be some ongoing feedback so one can see what’s happening it will help to not make it feel so long.
Thanks, that sounds promising. I will it a try and report back here. It would actually be quite cool to be able to do this wirelessly. At the moment I struggling a bit to download the Rasberry Toolchain for cross-compiling. It gets an error midway and then stops. Halfway again at the moment so holding thumbs for success this time.
