In this post we will walk through the new Visual Studio Code Embedded Tools extension. We'll show how to acquire embedded tool dependencies with vcpkg then edit, build, deploy, and debug an Azure RTOS ThreadX project highlighting the new peripheral register and RTOS object views.
In this post we will walk you through Visual Studio installation of the embedded workload, how to acquire embedded tool dependencies with vcpkg, then demonstrate edit, build, deploy, and debugging directly in Visual Studio with new peripheral register and RTOS object views. We will demonstrate all of this with an Azure RTOS ThreadX project.
Updated May 11, 2022: Using your own registry section revised to reflect metadata format changes. We are happy to announce a new experience for acquiring artifacts using vcpkg.
