New VSC Updates Stops Project build

Postby Amir_El » Sun Mar 14, 2021 7:47 am

The automatic update just updated my VSC to 1.54.2 & ESP-IDF 4.1.1. The Building process stopped working immediately after the update. (The build process never change from the photo below)

I still can do the build from the command line but not from VSC anymore

I hope I can find a solution other than reinstalling the whole thing.

I noticed also that my C/C++ Compiler has been changed !!

How I can change the compiler back to the old clang-x64 ?

Can you check your project's settings.json values? If your project settings.json have idf.espIdfPath, for example, this will override any global settings in Visual Studio Code.

Can you share a bit about your setup and any errors ?

You can use the `ESP-IDF: Doctor command` to generate a report of your configuration.

**Logs**
If applicable, please share the log file which can be obtained from

- Windows: `%USERPROFILE%\.vscode\extensions\espressif.esp-idf-extension-VERSION\esp_idf_vsc_ext.log`
- Linux & MacOSX: `$HOME/.vscode/extensions/espressif.esp-idf-extension-VERSION/esp_idf_vsc_ext.log`

I am a newbie to vscode and ESP32 but maybe my experience with the extension recently and feedback from Espressif might help?

My projects stopped building in the IDE after installing the extension.

I found when I deleted vscode and re-compiled (using the cylinder shape compile icon at bottom of screen), my project builds.

But the intelli-sense did not work.

So next I created a new esp-idf project using the command palette in vsc and copied the contents of the c_cpp_properties.json from the new project into my original project. Now it compiles and intelli-sense works fine (with exception of pdMS_TO_TICKS).
