Title: debug Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense bluetooth application
Post by P.Ferenc on Jan 10^th, 2021 at 7:32pm

Hi,

I created a simple BLE central application to Nano 33 BLE Sense board. I can complie and upload with Arduino IDE and vMicro in release mode, but if I try to compile in debug mode I got an error message:

"arm-none-eabi-g++*: error: CreateProcess: No such file or directory
Error compiling libraries"

Full compile output here: https://pastebin.com/TWKfFgX5

The arm-none-eabi-g++ is in 'C:\Users\feren\AppData\Local\arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\arm-none-eabi-gcc\7-2017q4/bin' directory I checked.

Could you help, how can I fix this compile error in debug mode?

Thanks for help!

Thanks for the report.

Can you confirm there is still an issue with the vMicro > Debugger > Monitor Free Memory Unchecked?

If there is still a problem, please upload a new log with the vMicro > Compiler > Show Build Properties Checked.

Yes, I confirm it, it is unchecked...
I attached the new LOG file with Show Build Properties and Folders.

Thanks for the detail, and it looks to be the limitation within the current toolchain (logged on GitHub here).

This can be worked around by either disabling the Serial Debugger, or by forcing a later toolchain to be used.

To force in a later toolchain
1) Install the "STM32 Cores" Board package from Boards manager
2) Add a Local board.txt file to your project, by Right Clicking the Project in Solution Explorer > Add > Local Board.txt
3) Add the below property to a Local board.txt file, then save, and build the project again
[code]runtime.tools.arm-none-eabi-gcc.path={runtime.tools.xpack-arm-none-eabi-gcc.path}[/code]
