Firmware Debugging Improvements #1387

Open tracernz opened 8 years ago

tracernz commented 8 years ago

Make the process a little smoother, more flexible, easier. Possibly use https://github.com/mbedmicro/pyOCD instead of OpenOCD. OpenOCD is a bit of a problem to install by script on Windows (no official distributions, unofficial ones require 7-zip).

Relates to #209?

tracernz commented 8 years ago

Ah, yep. The PR associated with #209 (from Tau) already merged IIRC. Windows is still in a bad state though (and is problematic to fix, hence this issue).

mlyle commented 8 years ago

Is it so unreasonable to say "if you want to debug firmware on windows, figure it out yourself?"

tracernz commented 8 years ago

No, it's fine, but if there's a good solution that isn't too much work/is potentially better on other platforms too, I'm willing to spend some time on it when I'm bored. :grin:
