NRF Connect SDK doesn't stop running Build

[M. Schuurmans]

Hi everyone,

I currently installed the latest version of the NRF connect SDK. I started a new build task which executes properly. The task doesn't however stop.

This is very annoying because I have to restart VSCode for it to stop. Is this a known issue? I can't find a reasonable explenation for it.

(Toolchain Manager version 1.2.5)

Best regards Maikel

Hi,

As a workaround you can just create a new project and add your filtes to it... not really ideal but worked for me.

[M. Schuurmans]

I actually tried this. But the issue remained the same. There has to be an issue with my project somehow.

[Einar Thorsrud]

I see. Can you make a private case and upload the project there? Just refer to this thread in the new case so that I am made aware of it.

[M. Schuurmans]

Einar and I were able to find the software bug. It is going to be included in a future VSCode release. I'll close the case now.

Seems like this bug is back...
If there is an error in configuring the network core image in a sysbuild with SDK 3.0.2 VS Code thinks the build never finishes. Is it looking for a file that never comes to determine this instead of the process thread ending since it is reusing the console?

Edit: Turns out when this happens the build folder is just wrong and it thinks it is a parent-child image. Even after restarting VS Code. By editing the build config and asking it to regenerate it with sysbuild it can work again. (After fixing the config error in the network image.)
