This is some log in rtos-debug

const result = await this.session.customRequest(cmd, arg);
/**
cmd is `evaluate`
arg is 
{
  frameId: 4096,
  expression: "(char *)((TCB_t*)0x200008d8).pcTaskName",
  context: "hover",
}

resault is

{
  result: "0x2000090c <ucHeap+1080> <error reading variable>",
  type: "char *",
  presentationHint: {
  },
  variablesReference: 3145788,
  memoryReference: "0x2000090c",

Hi @USTHzhanglu Can you please state your system versions like VSCode, extension and most important FreeRTOS.

Without these we're not able to help you at all

I am facing a similar issue as well: only the first character of a task name will appear in the XRTOS table. When I use char* test = pcTaskGetName(NULL); to get the task name address, it appears as the full name with null termination in memory view.

Been seeing this for months now so it probably showed up in an earlier vscode revision. Used to work with the same version of FreeRTOS under test:

Mac OS: 14.5 (M2) vscode: 1.90.2 mcu-debug RTOS Views: 0.0.7 FreeRTOS: 10.4.6 Probe: Jtrace Debugger: gdb from 10.3
