Use of Pristine Build on VScode for nRF Connect Extension

[Ubaid_M]

Hi,

Please find attached my sample hello world project : 8547.Sample.7z

It was all good and building fine on VSCode, until I "Pristine Build" the project.

Now there are compile errors in the entire workspace as in below snap:


Kindly help me on:
1. How to undo this and again get my project to build successfully..?
2. When to use "Pristine Build"..?

Thanks,

Hi,

Kindly refer this thread for Include errors and you could also learn more about VSCode for nrf from here.

Pristine Build is used to build when you need to incorporate any changes done to the CMake. In other cases, you just need to 'build'

As I earlier stated, the attached project was building fine before I "Pristine Build"..!
Now it is not building.

Kindly suggest how I can get it to build again.

Thanks,

Hi,

This looks like a C++ issue. Could you try including the "CONFIG_CPLUSPLUS=y" in your prj.conf file?

Hello,

You are right, thank you so much.
Seems "pristine build" undid my C++ configuration.
Now it's building fine.

I Would want to know why Pristine build undid my C++ configurations..?
Can you help me with that..?
