Hello,
I am using NCS v1.3.0 examples and also my custom made C++ code with Visual Studio Code V1.48.2 (Since the latest version of VS Code V1.5 is having official issues to open serial port).
I have the following questions:
1) Is there a way to run serial monitor other than using arduino serial monitor in vs code ? Right now if I am opening a serial monitor but there are 3 issues
a) I cannot open more than 1 serial terminal monitor in VS Code
b) I am getting garbage values also when I try to run the code in serial terminal. I am setting the baud rate as 115200. As you can see in the picture, before "uart" there is some garbage.
c) I cannot write directly onto the serial terminal since it is a read only one. So I have to use this option , Arduino: Send text to serial port and send my command to serial port.
d) If you are able to run the serial port terminal in higher versions than V1.48.2 then also let me know
2) Let's consider this case. I am inside the project directory and try to build that project with SES and as a result build_nrf52840dk_nrf52840 directory is created (since I am using nrf52840). Once the build is done through SES, I go into VS Code and try to flash my code using "west flash" by going inside the build_nrf52840dk_nrf52840 directory. But when I use west flash inside this directory. it again starts to build the project even if it is already build by SES. Does "west" command not use the same build files to flash into the board which are inside the same folder created by SES?
