CODECOMPOSER: Roadmap for "TI Embedded Debug for VS Code"

CODECOMPOSER: TI Embedded Debug for VS Code on linux does not

Ioana Panu
Prodigy 20 points
Part Number: CODECOMPOSER

Tool/software:

I have tried various linux distributions and on all I could not install dependencies

   - error is cannot execute command: supported platform required

and

   - failed to check if dependencies are installed

Have not tried on osx or windows yet

Looking at the extension code I noticed hard coded 'windows' aspects (paths, apps etc)

It seems that only windows platform is coded/supported although there is no indication that would be the case

Although I have, most likely, all the external dependencies installed ( CCS various versions and the dev packs needed plus some other arm compilers) there is no obvious way to configure the extension

Pretty disappointing the path TI walks now

    Hello,

    This extension is quite limited at the moment and is only really supported on Windows. 

    We plan to have a more fully featured extension in the future that supports other host OS platforms.

    Sorry for the confusion. I will  notify the team to clarify the dependencies in the extension description.

    Any roadmap for the development?

    Where is the source code? I could do my own development to support the linux/mac platforms

    What is needed is:

      - more transparency

      - architectural info

      - configuration hints

    Thanks

    We do have plans to update the extension to properly support linux/mac. This should be coming in a few weeks.

    I can also provide a link to the source for gdb and openOCD as this is open source. However I can not do so for our extension. Let me know if this is still of interest.

    Thanks
