Hardware Debugging Support

Supports Cortex-Debug. This extension enables debugging with JLink and some other debug probes. (see https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=marus25.cortex-debug for details). Please note: to enable HW debugging the Teensies need some minor modifications :-). See here https://mcuoneclipse.com/2017/04/29/modifying-the-teensy-3-5-and-3-6-for-arm-swd-debugging/ for details.

Here a quick video showing the debugging feature:

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed some bugs in the library handling. Especially copying of libraries from the huge web based Arduino repository into the project folder is working now.
  • Copying of the Teensy core libraries into the project folder is working now. This setting allows for completely self contained projects without the need for an Arduino installation.

Known Issues:

Generating new projects still needs some improvements. For the time being best practice to generate a new project is to manually generate an empty project folder and open it from VisualTeensy.

Installation

Install vsCode (if not yet done)
Unzip attached zip file to any convenient folder and start VisualTeensy.exe
