Hi

Here it is (my  Help->About VisualGDB).

Thx for looking into it.

Hi

I think you totally missed my point:

I am aware how to set the parameters. I am not asking: How? I am letting you know, that you are missing some configuration parameters in project settings that Your software is collecting from the user.

Let’s walk through a simplest example and see if we arrive at the same point (I am using the latest ESP-IDF v5.0) and the target is ESP32 chip:

1. Open VS and using VisualGDB create BLINK example from “get-started” folder. Let  it finish and then…
2. Using VS or any other text editor, open “sdkconfig” file in the project root directory
3. Scroll down to line number 707: You should find settings for the CPU frequency: Options are: 80, 160 and 240 MHz (or search for “CONFIG_ESP_DEFAULT_CPU_FREQ_MHZ”)
4. Go back to VS and open “VisualGDB Project Properties”
5. Based on that “sdkconfig” file, the VisualGDB creates a dialog to collect new project settings from the user (I assume).
6. Where is the CPU_Frequency setting in “VisualGDB Project Properties”? I “Filter” for: CPU, Freq., MHz and even scrolled through the whole configuration: It’s not there.

Relevant fragment of my sdkconfig file:

You are missing at least 1 parameter for the project settings. And I would have never found it, if it was not for the fact that the Espressif default frequency is 160MHz and I want all my chips running at 240MHz. It looks to me, like you are missing some parameters from “ESPxxx specific” section.

Here is “platform.io” configuration for the same ESP32 chip (same example):

I did not checked all, but in addition to CPU frequency, you are missing “Brownout Detection”, “Brownout Voltage”,…
