VS Code custom board bug

[Thomas]

Hi,

I am developing for custom boards on VS Code and while the new board search in the workspace path is working, I am having issues with it.

When I add another project to the workspace, the board does populate and I can configure a build option for it, and build it when configuring it. However, if I then try and do a pristine build, it complains that it can't find the board?

Also, if I then close VS Code and reopen it, the build folder does not show up for the second project.

Everything for the first project works fine including the pristine build and the build folder being displayed.

I also find that I cannot see the board for the second project after adding it to the nrf connect applications until I restart VS Code?

Kind regards,

Thomas

Hi,

Thank you very much for identifying the potential issue. I have reported to the concerned team and they are working on this. A workaround would be to add the required directories in the "Board Roots" setting in VS Code so that they are applied always.
