This project demonstrates of using Visual Studio Code for RISC-V embedded development.
Details in the Wiki.
- Visual Studio Code
- Plugin "C/C++" (cpptools)
- Plugin "Native Debug"
- Plugin "Makefile Tools" (optional)
- RISC-V tools
Project contains build and launch configurations in c_cpp_properties.json, launch.json, tasks.json (in folder /.vscode/).
Build done with makefile and tasks "Makefile" and "Makefile clean" in tasks.json. Build started by Ctrl+Shift+B.
File launch.json contains debug configurations.
There are two configurations variants "cpptools Debug" and "Native Debug", they are similar with slight differences.
Choose configuration in debug palette and launch debugging by F5.
File tasks.json contains tasks "preLaunchTask" and "postDebugTask" for launch.json.
OpenOCD (and Spike) starts as tasks in background.
All task-processes automatically terminate by stop/disconnect (with task "Termitate all tasks").
Set actual paths in files paths, c_cpp_properties.json, launch.json, tasks.json.
Build project: Ctrl+Shift+B.
Launch with hardware:
Set configuration in launch.json:
"preLaunchTask": "startOpenocdHW"
Launch with Spike:
Set configuration in launch.json:
"preLaunchTask": "startOpenocdSpike"
Tested on VS Code ver.1.67.2.
