I use the nrf connect sdk together with vscode.
My application is a workspace application with the following structure:
.├── application│ ├── build│ ├── CMakeLists.txt│ ├── prj.conf│ ├── README.rst│ ├── sample.yaml│ ├── src│ └── west.yml├── boards│ └── arm└── external ├── bootloader ├── modules ├── nrf ├── nrfxlib ├── test ├── tools └── zephyr
I have a working build configuration with my custom board. So the zephyr build systems seems to recognize everything correctly.
Unfortunately if I open my boards .dts file, vscode does no find the included nordic/nrf52840_qiaa.dtsi file. furthermore the visual devicetree editor only shows the nodes defined in the boards .dts file but nothing from the included file from nordic.
So to my understanding, the extension does not (at least in my case) look for devicetree files in $ZEPHYR_BASE/dts/arm. If I open a board .dts file from withing $ZEPHYR_BASE, everything seems to work fine though.
