There are a number of ways that Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code enable you to interact with remote machines. Both can enable you to connect to a remote machine and use it as a build machine and debug your applications there. Sometimes though your target is not the same as your build machine. For example, for embedded Linux devices you will ...
In Visual Studio 2022 17.4 vcpkg environments will now automatically activate. A vcpkg environment is described by a manifest that captures the artifacts necessary for building your application (learn more about vcpkg artifacts). Today the vcpkg artifact experience is focused on embedded developers, but we will be expanding this in time to all C++ ...
In the world of Arm microcontrollers there are many silicon vendors, one of the largest is STMicroelectronics. ST has a large catalog of available devices with many capabilities as well as supporting development boards for evaluating them. They also produce STM32CubeIDE, a custom IDE to use when targeting their devices, and STM32CubeMX, a ...
We are continuing to improve our embedded development support in Visual Studio and VS Code. We have recently introduced a serial monitor and RTOS support for Zephyr. These capabilities are present in Visual Studio 17.3 Preview 1 as part of the Linux and embedded development workload. The Embedded Tools extension for VS Code also includes these ...
In this post we will walk through the new Visual Studio Code Embedded Tools extension. We'll show how to acquire embedded tool dependencies with vcpkg then edit, build, deploy, and debug an Azure RTOS ThreadX project highlighting the new peripheral register and RTOS object views.
In this post we will walk you through Visual Studio installation of the embedded workload, how to acquire embedded tool dependencies with vcpkg, then demonstrate edit, build, deploy, and debugging directly in Visual Studio with new peripheral register and RTOS object views. We will demonstrate all of this with an Azure RTOS ThreadX project.
