Documents.zip I have updated my user guide to create, build & debug esp32s3 using VSCode or PowerShell. it's based on weeks of running into problems and finding solutions in obscure Internet locations. I hope it's useful, if anyone spots any errors please let me know and I will correct them. There ...

I worked it out, the warning is because at that point in the process the build folder does not yet exist consequently /build/compile_commands.json" could not be parsed.

Many thanks, I'll try that

Thanks for your suggestions, it helped me to realise what I was doing wrong.

I was doing this:

1: Add dependency
2: Add #include
3: Build = failed!!!!!

The correct way is:

1: Add dependency
2: Build - to add managed components
3: Add #include
4: Build = success

Are you saying that one must run set-target and build using idf.py rather than do this in the ESP-IDF VSCode extension from the buttons in the status bar?

Is there a solution to this warning message: "e:\Users\Steven\Documents\GitHub\ESP-IDF\LED_strip/build/compile_commands.json" could not be parsed. 'includePath' from c_cpp_properties.json in folder 'LED_STRIP' will be used instead. ??

Thank you

If I create a new project based on the sample_project it builds, if I then add a component e.g. led_strip using the Python command idf.py add-dependency "espressif/led_strip^2.5.5" it creates the file idf.component.yml in which there are references to led_strip, but it does not build as the folder m...

If I create a new project called blink from the blink example I have no problem building it. However if I create a minimal new project using the sample project, again I can build it but if I try to add a component using the command listed in the ESP Registry i.e. idf.py add-dependency "espressif/led...

I'm using the Espressif IDF extension 1.8.1 on VSCode 1.92.2 and arduino esp-32 3.0.4 in the component folder, but I can not build the simplest code e.g. the one included in the list of templates called arduino-as-component. I get lots of messages about Ninja failure and missing paths but I must be ...

Hello, I also get confused when dealing with COM ports of S3. I use these ports with MIDI library, and I haven't yet made it clear nor found a universal solution for different versions of ESP Arduino core. But here's what I've found for now: Core 2.0.17 When a board doesn't have a dedicated UART ch...
