VSCode support for QT Py RP2040 ?

Post by jsroques »

Hello,

I am building a new project based on QT Py RP2040 but it is not fully supported into VSCode (lots of other cuties... but not this specific one).

I managed to get simple "blink" example to work (redefining pins_arduino.h... but it is not "clean") and I am not sure I will not run into issues in the future.

Is there (quite) simple modification I could do to make it work in a proper fashion ? Is there plan to add this new QT Py into VSCode ?

Thanks !
Jean-Sébastien

I'm afraid we don't use VSCode and don't have any insight into configuring it. Maybe someone from the community will have more information.

Hello Mike,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Just to clarify, when I spoke about VSCode, I should have said PlatformIO which is built on top of VSCode.

I was thinking Adafruit was providing the integration with PlatformIO because I saw a lot of other Adafruit boards. I will check on PlatformIO side also then.

If anyone could give me some directions to make this QT Py RT2040 on how to make it work, that would be great :-)

Regards.
JS

JS,

I don't have an answer for you, but I feel your pain. I have been trying to build for the Feather RP2040 using VS Code itself, and even that seems to be very un-supported. (See the above comment from adafruit_support_mike; this seems to be typical - and understandable, I guess - they can't support everything!)

I am still flailing to find what dev environment works best for C and the Feather (and also the Pico). I am now looking at the Arduino IDE, which is basically C, so I'd be happy if that works.

I look forward to see if anyone else has a better answer!
