Sync/Connection breaks on stopping multi-threaded program in Pico #225

Open SmallhillCZ opened 5 months ago

SmallhillCZ commented 5 months ago

What are the steps to reproduce this issue?

  1. Create a program that creates another thread on the second CPU core
  2. Run the program, wait for the second core to start
  3. Hit Stop in the status bar
  4. Try to upload a file or refresh the Pico-W-FS

What happens?

What were you expecting to happen?

Stop the program, allow me to make a change and be able to start it again

Any logs, error output, etc?

Having the same issue. It seems that when I duplicate the workspace, it reconnects correctly. Just putting this here to help with debugging. Maybe some sort of halt/stop code isn't being sent on reconnect but is sent on initial connect/extension start?

@SmallhillCZ on the microcontroller side, add a small delay (e.g. 3s) before creating the secondary thread. Helps quite a bit while we wait for this to be fixed.

I am also having this issue, running on a Pi Pico W with latest micropython firmware flashed. Windows 11
