Hi,
I have recently started using nRF Connect with VSCode.
Every once in a while, the build (and also the pristine build) will fail with this output:
[8/9] Building C object zephyr/CMakeFiles/zephyr_final.dir/dev_handles.c.obj [9/9] Linking C executable zephyr\zephyr.elf FAILED: zephyr/zephyr.elf zephyr/zephyr.map zephyr/zephyr.hex zephyr/zephyr.bin zephyr/zephyr.lst zephyr/zephyr.stat cmd.exe /C "cd . && C:\NordicSemi\v1.7.0\toolchain\opt\bin\arm-none-eabi-gcc.exe zephyr/CMakeFiles/zephyr_final.dir/misc/empty_file.c.obj zephyr/CMakeFiles/zephyr_final.dir/isr_tables.c.obj zephyr/CMakeFiles/zephyr_final.dir/dev_handles.c.obj -o zephyr\zephyr.elf -Wl,-T zephyr/linker.cmd -Wl,-Map=C:/NordicSemi/projects/ADC/build/zephyr/zephyr_final.map -Wl,--whole-archive app/libapp.a zephyr/libzephyr.a zephyr/arch/common/libarch__common.a zephyr/arch/arch/arm/core/aarch32/libarch__arm__core__aarch32.a zephyr/arch/arch/arm/core/aarch32/cortex_m/libarch__arm__core__aarch32__cortex_m.a zephyr/arch/arch/arm/core/aarch32/mpu/libarch__arm__core__aarch32__mpu.a zephyr/lib/libc/minimal/liblib__libc__minimal.a zephyr/lib/posix/liblib__posix.a zephyr/soc/arm/common/cortex_m/libsoc__arm__common__cortex_m.a zephyr/soc/arm/nordic_nrf/nrf52/libsoc__arm__nordic_nrf__nrf52.a zephyr/subsys/bluetooth/common/libsubsys__bluetooth__common.a zephyr/subsys/bluetooth/host/libsubsys__bluetooth__host.a zephyr/subsys/bluetooth/controller/libsubsys__bluetooth__controller.a zephyr/subsys/net/libsubsys__net.a zephyr/subsys/random/libsubsys__random.a zephyr/drivers/adc/libdrivers__adc.a zephyr/drivers/gpio/libdrivers__gpio.a zephyr/drivers/serial/libdrivers__serial.a zephyr/drivers/entropy/libdrivers__entropy.a modules/nrf/lib/fatal_error/lib..__nrf__lib__fatal_error.a modules/hal_nordic/nrfx/libmodules__hal_nordic__nrfx.a modules/segger/libmodules__segger.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive zephyr/kernel/libkernel.a zephyr/CMakeFiles/offsets.dir/./arch/arm/core/offsets/offsets.c.obj -L"c:/nordicsemi/v1.7.0/toolchain/opt/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-eabi/9.2.1/thumb/v7e-m/nofp" -LC:/NordicSemi/projects/ADC/build/zephyr -lgcc -Wl,--print-memory-usage zephyr/arch/common/libisr_tables.a -mcpu=cortex-m4 -mthumb -mabi=aapcs -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,--build-id=none -Wl,--sort-common=descending -Wl,--sort-section=alignment -Wl,-u,_OffsetAbsSyms -Wl,-u,_ConfigAbsSyms -nostdlib -static -no-pie -Wl,-X -Wl,-N -Wl,--orphan-handling=warn && cmd.exe /C "cd /D C:\NordicSemi\projects\ADC\build\zephyr && C:\NordicSemi\v1.7.0\toolchain\opt\bin\cmake.exe -E rename zephyr_final.map zephyr.map && C:\NordicSemi\v1.7.0\toolchain\opt\bin\arm-none-eabi-objcopy.exe --gap-fill 0xff --output-target=ihex --remove-section=.comment --remove-section=COMMON --remove-section=.eh_frame zephyr.elf zephyr.hex && C:\NordicSemi\v1.7.0\toolchain\opt\bin\arm-none-eabi-objcopy.exe --gap-fill 0xff --output-target=binary --remove-section=.comment --remove-section=COMMON --remove-section=.eh_frame zephyr.elf zephyr.bin && C:\NordicSemi\v1.7.0\toolchain\opt\bin\arm-none-eabi-objdump.exe -d -S zephyr.elf > zephyr.lst && C:\NordicSemi\v1.7.0\toolchain\opt\bin\arm-none-eabi-readelf.exe -e zephyr.elf > zephyr.stat"" Memory region Used Size Region Size %age Used FLASH: 85428 B 512 KB 16.29% SRAM: 17224 B 64 KB 26.28% IDT_LIST: 0 GB 2 KB 0.00% Error renaming from "zephyr_final.map" to "zephyr.map": No error ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

To me it looks like the .map file might be locked (just guessing), but I haven't been able to solve it, although a restart of VSCode does the trick.
Best regards,
