I loaded one of their example projects and built it without any errors. However, I am not able to debug since there is no option for a debugging tool (see screenshot). The only option is for 'Custom programming tool', while their tutorial videos all show an option for a SAM-ICE debugger or Simulator (e.g. =9QlDSNeuAdY)
I know this sounds terribly basic, but in my case I have both SAML21 and SAML22 Xplained Pro boards, and I'd forgotten which one I had targeted for a particular project. If you have a project open that targets one, but the attached device is different, you may have this problem. The only available option becomes "Custom Programming Tool" which isn't helpful.
I spend some time about this problem as well and found out that all I had to do was go to Device and Debugging options then go to Build and select All Configurations in the configuration box then the simulator should appear under tools.
In my case it was atbackend.exe which crashed after hibernating my laptop. I had to stop Atmel studio, ensure that no AtmelStudio or atbackend processes exist in system and then start ATmel STudio again. After that Simulator appeared in Tool-Selected debugger/programmer.
SonarLint is an IDE extension - free and open source - that helps you detect and fix quality issues as you write code. Like a spell checker, SonarLint squiggles flaws so they can be fixed before committing code.
As team we try to get SonarLint working on visual studio 2019 community edition or in Microchip studio which previous is known as atmel studio. Atmel studio is based on the visual studio suite So in theory the plug-in should work. But the installer of sonarlint tells that it cannot find a suitable product to install sonarlint into.
What I achieved so far:
My question is does SonarLint support atmel studio or will we need another tool or product for this issue. We would like a tool that works from within the IDE without to much configration or creating scripts.
The best use case would be:
Scan in the IDE for errors and report them to the SonarQube webui ( Developer edition)
We think the SonarLint plugin has this capabilty but we dont know how to make use of it or how to use it. We suspect this is a configuration/ user error of us.
Note I found a way to open up the vsix file, cause its just a zip file. but after editing the 16.0,17.0 to 12.0, This would give support for all versions I get the following error and I cant fix that
What is the version of Microchip Studio you are using ? And on which version of Visual Studio is it based on ? The problem might be that you try to install SonarLint for Visual Studio 2019 on an IDE that accepts only VS 2015 or VS 2017 extensions.
