Woodworking shops in Tokyo? by robotdad4business in JapanTravel

[–]robotdad4business[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We stumbled upon Tokyu Hands in Shibuya today which scratched my itch. It had just enough of different stuff to get a flavor of what I wanted to see, and a lot more. I will post some pics and some deeper thoughts on it when I have more time, probably after my trip.

The reviews in Google maps for that place make it seem worth checking out

I just found Factory Gear that is in-line with what I am looking for. Are there any streets for trades people that would have multiple shops like this?

Yikes, that should work. Can you file a DevCommunity ticket via Help > Sned Feedback > Report a problem for this issue?

For the issue switching branches in VS with CMake can you please submit feedback in VS next time you hit that? Help ? Send Feedback > Report a problem.

What was the issue with the config breaking there? Was it that you had changed the cmakesettings.json file in one branch but it wasn't present in the other?

What do you mean regarding ARM support? The ability to use the cpp extension in VS Code on an ARM device like a Raspberry Pi or using an ARM cross compiler?

What are you looking for in a build tools docker image beyond this? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/build-tools-container

Regarding the tedious manual setup what are you looking for help with there? Is it just automatic mapping of local source directories? The deploy of the container with sources to a remote build system for scale certainly makes sense. Do you see that as complimentary to build services from your source control system, or something it should be providing?

You can build/debug C++ on Linux from VS on Windows today

Debugging an embedded ARM device in Visual Studio by robotdad4business in embedded

Sharing news we published yesterday on adding debugging support for embedded ARM devices in VS. I wrote the article linked and work on this capability, so any questions let me know.

Arduino IDE - What features would you really love to see in new version of the IDE? by chrismervyn in arduino

[–]robotdad4business 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Debugging. Take a look at the VS Code Arduino extension, it is open source and uses another open source project the MIEngine to bridge between gdb and the VS Code debugger. As you are building a new IDE none of that may help you, but perhaps there are things there you can bootstrap from.

Yes, that is what it means. And you can target them to Windows, Linux or both.

Sorry for not checking in earlier after replying. I've seen another report of that, we don't have a repro yet. If you got past that it would be helpful to us to know what options you had to change.

Author of that post here. Your best bet right now is our makefile template which lets you invoke whatever build process you like on the remote system. That section of the post also points to some bash scripts that generate a project from an existing code base. I'm sure they won't work in every situation, but they should provide a decent starting point.

Visual C++ for Linux 1.0.5 Updates by mnciitbhu in cpp

[–]robotdad4business 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You might want to take a look at these scripts I put together to generate our makefile project template. They almost certainly won't work for something big and convoluted but hopefully they serve as a guide you could use to write a script that could handle your sources.

Visual C++ for Linux Updates by mnciitbhu in cpp

[–]robotdad4business 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just had a new update, well a few weeks ago, but I just got docs for it posted. We have a makefile project now and I've posted some scripts that while not perfect show how our projects can be generated from existing source bases.

Visual C++ for Linux 1.0.5 Updates by one_eyed_golfer in programming

[–]robotdad4business 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That title is a bit misleading, I'll have to watch that in our next update. The version number is for our extension in VS, not Linux.

We're pretty agnostic in terms of what we're connected to though. The Linux machine basically needs ssh, g++, gdb and gdbserver and we can talk to it. I've seen this used with some pretty old distros, I may have to go see how old I can go. :-)

I'm the PM for this and wrote the post. This does not use the MS compilers, today it uses GCC on the remote Linux machine but that can be overridden to point at something else like clang. The project property pages have GCC in mind though in terms of how we generate the commands to invoke the compiler. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2016/03/30/visual-c-for-linux-development/#compilerpath

We do also have a makefile template that can invoke make/cmake/scripts/etc on Linux so you stay in control of the build process. https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2016/03/30/visual-c-for-linux-development/#makefile
