== Introduction ==
This Technical Note (TN) shows how to integrate [https://code.visualstudio.com/ Visual Studio Code (VSC) ] and [https://www.lauterbach.com/ Lauterbach PowerView TRACE32 (PVT32)]. The integration aims to:
*Debug the program in VSC by using PVT32 as a communication bridge with the target
*Jump from PVT32 to VSC (in editing mode) to edit the source file where the a an issue/bug was found. This article also shows how to configure VSC in order to cross-build a Makefile-based application. This configuration supports cross-toolchain error messages to jump on erroneous lines with a simple click.

==Integrating VSC e PVRT32PVT32==
===Debugging in VSC by using PVT32 as a communication bridge===
*After opening VSC from the root directory of the <code>freertos_hello_world</code> project, install the ''Native Debug'' extension.

*Edit the PVT32's configuration file (ususally usually named <code>config.t32</code>) and add the following lines:
<syntaxhighlight lang="text">
; Remote Control Access
PROTOCOL=TCP
</syntaxhighlight>
*Run PVT32 and start a debugging session (see for instance [[BELK-TN-007:_FreeRTOS_on_single-core_Bora_Lite_SoM#Running_the_application|this section]]).

*On VSC side, start a debugging session by pressing F5. VSC will start a debug session that is synchronized with PVT32 as shown in the following image. So you can set breakpoints, steb-by-step execute the code, etc. on VSC side, but the actual operations will be done on the target by PVT32.
The source file will be open in VSC, which will jump on the selected line.
