11-13: Restructure macOS section for clarity and correctness.The current section has several issues:
- Duplicates the introduction text unnecessarily
- Contains a grammatical error (period breaking the prerequisites sentence)
- Has an unlinked reference to "here"
Suggested restructuring:
-To begin, download the Espressif-IDE for your respective operating system. Following this, launch the IDE and proceed to install the necessary ESP-IDF and related tools. Please note that prior to launching the IDE, you must ensure that Java, Python, and Git are installed as prerequisites. and available in the system path. -If you plan to use Eclipse CDT and update it through the IDF Eclipse plugin, please ensure that you download the supported version for your operating system from here. +Prerequisites +^^^^^^^^^^^^ +Before launching the Espressif-IDE, ensure the following tools are installed and available in your system path: + +* Java +* Python +* Git + +Installation Steps +^^^^^^^^^^^^ +1.

15-16: Add proper Linux installation instructions.The Linux section lacks actual installation instructions. Consider adding:
- System requirements
- Step-by-step installation process
- Common troubleshooting steps
Would you like me to help draft a comprehensive Linux installation guide section?
Line range hint
1-16: Consider adding a consistent structure across all OS sections.To improve the documentation's overall quality and maintainability, consider:
- Using consistent section hierarchy (Prerequisites, Installation Steps, Verification)
- Adding version compatibility information
- Including troubleshooting sections for common issues
- Adding a "What's Next" section to guide users after installation
This will help maintain consistency across the documentation and improve the user experience.
docs/en/prerequisites.rst (4)
3-4: LGTM! Consider adding version compatibility information.The introduction clearly explains what Espressif-IDE is and its purpose. Consider adding the version compatibility information mentioned in the AI summary (Espressif-IDE v3.0+ supports ESP-IDF v5.x+) to help users ensure compatibility upfront.
14-15: Enhance PATH configuration guidance.The note about PATH configuration could be more helpful by:
- Providing commands or links to verify the PATH setup
- Including basic troubleshooting steps
Consider expanding with:
.. note:: Ensure that Java, Python, and Git are correctly set up and available in the system's PATH environment variable. + You can verify the setup using these commands: + + .. code-block:: bash + + java --version + python --version + git --version
20-22: Enhance hardware specifications.The hardware prerequisites could be more specific to help users make informed decisions:
- List supported ESP32 development board models
- Specify USB cable requirements (e.g., USB-A to Micro-B, USB-C)
- Add minimum computer specifications (RAM, disk space)
1-22: Consider adding a table of contents.The document is well-structured but could benefit from a table of contents for better navigation, especially as it grows. RST supports this with the
:local:directive.Add this after the title:
Prerequisites =============================== +.. contents:: + :local: + :depth: 1docs/en/index.rst (1)
43-43: LGTM! Enhanced documentation structure with increased TOC depth.The increased table of contents depth improves navigation by making subsections more visible. Consider adding a brief description before each major section in the TOC to provide context for readers.
Example enhancement:
.. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 Prerequisites - Required software and hardware setup <prerequisites> Installation - Step-by-step installation guide <installation> Start a Project - Create your first ESP-IDF project <startproject> ...docs/en/windowsofflineinstaller.rst (3)
18-18: Improve readability of the introduction paragraph.The current paragraph is a run-on sentence with grammatical issues. Consider restructuring it for better clarity:
-As Installer bundles, all the required components and tools including stable esp-idf so people behind corporate firewalls can use the whole solution out-of-box. This also configures all the required build environment variables and tool paths as you launch the IDE. All you could do is to get started with your project directly without manually configuring anything. This will give you a big boost to your productivity! +The installer bundles all required components and tools, including a stable ESP-IDF version, allowing users behind corporate firewalls to use the complete solution out-of-the-box. Upon launching the IDE, it automatically configures all necessary build environment variables and tool paths. You can start your project immediately without any manual configuration, significantly boosting your productivity!
126-126: Use relative documentation links instead of GitHub links.The link to the "New Project" section points to GitHub README. Consider using a relative link to the corresponding documentation section for better maintainability.
-You can find more details for creating a project in the `New Project <https://github.com/espressif/idf-eclipse-plugin#create-a-new-project>`_ section of the documentation. +You can find more details for creating a project in the :ref:`new-project` section of the documentation.
20-20: Consider adding essential documentation sections.The documentation would benefit from additional sections:
- System Requirements: Specify minimum hardware and software requirements.
- Troubleshooting: Common installation issues and their solutions.
- Uninstallation Instructions: How to cleanly remove the software.
Would you like me to provide a template for these sections?

5-7: Consider enhancing the installation steps documentation.While the current steps are clear, consider these improvements for better user experience:
- Use numbered steps instead of bullet points for sequential instructions
- Add information about prerequisites (if any)
- Include troubleshooting information for common installation issues
Example structure:
-* Right-click on the project in ``Project Explorer`` where you want to add the component, and select ``ESP-IDF > Install ESP-IDF Components``. -* A new window will open, displaying all available components to be installed. -* In the window, you can click on the ``Install`` button to add the selected component to the project. To access the README file for a component, click ``More Info``, which opens the README in your browser. +Prerequisites +------------ +- Ensure you have an active internet connection +- Verify you have sufficient permissions to modify the project + +Installation Steps +---------------- +1.

12-12: Consider restructuring the UI state information.The information about already added components would be more visible as a note or tip block.
-Already added components are also shown, but the ``Install`` button text changes to ``Already Added`` and is disabled. +.. note:: + Components that are already added to your project will still be shown in the list, but their ``Install`` button will be disabled and display ``Already Added``.
1-12: Consider adding version compatibility information.Given that version compatibility between Espressif-IDE and ESP-IDF is mentioned in the PR objectives, consider adding a compatibility note section to this document. This would help users understand any version-specific requirements or limitations when installing components.
Suggested addition:
Version Compatibility ------------------- .. note:: Component installation is supported in Espressif-IDE version X.Y and above, with ESP-IDF version A.B and above. Some components may have specific version requirements. Please check the component's documentation for details.docs/en/configureproject.rst (2)
4-4: Consider adding technical details about the sdkconfig file format.The introduction would benefit from mentioning that

This configuration file can be modified using the ``SDK Configuration Editor``. +Project configuration is stored in a single text-based file called ``sdkconfig`` located in the root directory of the project. This configuration file can be modified using the ``SDK Configuration Editor`` or manually with any text editor.
16-17: Enhance image accessibility and path reference.The image reference could be improved:
- Use a more descriptive alt text that explains what users can expect to see
- Consider using a more stable path reference instead of relative parent paths

- ESP-IDF version compatibility information
- Required hardware components (e.g., specific debug probe models)
- Supported ESP chip families
13-14: Enhance driver installation note with specific device informationConsider specifying which USB devices (e.g., FTDI, CP210x) require Zadig drivers to help users identify their hardware setup correctly.
docs/en/additionalfeatures/partitiontableeditor.rst (2)
1-4: Enhance the introduction with more context and version information.Consider expanding the introduction to include:
- A brief explanation of what a partition table is and why it's important
- Key benefits of using the UI editor compared to manual CSV editing
- Supported ESP-IDF versions for this feature
Partition Table Editor UI for ESP-IDF ===================================== -The Partition Table Editor command allows you to edit your `partition table <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/partition-tables.html>`_ in a more convenient way, where you can see the supported types and subtypes and monitor the correctness of the entered data. +The Partition Table Editor provides a graphical interface to edit your `partition table <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/partition-tables.html>`_, which defines the organization of the SPI flash memory in your ESP32 device. This UI tool simplifies the partition management process by: + +* Providing a visual representation of flash memory layout +* Offering dropdown menus for supported partition types and subtypes +* Validating entries in real-time to prevent common errors +* Eliminating the need for manual CSV file editing + +.. note:: + This feature is supported in ESP-IDF version X.Y and later.
6-20: Expand the steps section with more detailed guidance.The steps would be more helpful with:
- Expected outcomes after each action
- Common validation errors and their solutions
- Next steps after saving (e.g., build process, flash command)
Steps ----- 1. Go to *Project Explorer* and open any IDF Project where you want to create a customized partition table. + The project must be configured with ESP-IDF support. + 2. In *Project Explorer*, right-click on the project and select *ESP-IDF > Partition Table Editor*: .. image:: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/24419842/216105408-ca2e73ce-5df3-4bdd-ac61-b7265deb9b44.png :alt: Partition Table Editor menu option When you open the partition table editor for the selected project, you will see the standard editable content. Errors, if any, will be highlighted. You can hover your mouse over them to get hints about the issues: .. image:: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/24419842/216106804-703b2eb4-b141-48de-8559-0599f072219f.png :alt: Error hints in Partition Table Editor + Common validation errors include: + * Overlapping partition addresses + * Invalid partition sizes + * Missing required partition types + 3.

13-17: Standardize quotation marks in UI element referencesFor consistency, use double backticks for all UI element references.
-1. Select a project from the ``Project Explorer``. -2. Select ``Run`` from the first dropdown, which is called ``Launch Mode``. -3. Select your application from the second dropdown, which is called ``Launch Configuration`` (Auto-detected). -4. Select a target from the third dropdown, which is called ``Launch Target``. +1. Select a project from the ``Project Explorer``. +2. Select ``Run`` from the first dropdown, which is called ``Launch Mode``. +3. Select your application from the second dropdown, which is called ``Launch Configuration`` (Auto-detected). +4. Select a target from the third dropdown, which is called ``Launch Target``.
29-29: Add platform-specific path examplesConsider adding examples for Windows paths to improve cross-platform clarity.
-3. In the *Additional CMake Arguments* section, provide a custom build directory by adding arguments `-B <custom build path>` with an absolute path. The customized build directory path can be within the project or in any other location in the file system. For example: `-B /Users/myUser/esp/generated`. +3. In the *Additional CMake Arguments* section, provide a custom build directory by adding arguments `-B <custom build path>` with an absolute path. The customized build directory path can be within the project or in any other location in the file system. For example: + * Unix/macOS: `-B /Users/myUser/esp/generated` + * Windows: `-B C:\Users\myUser\esp\generated`docs/en/additionalfeatures/gdbstubdebugging.rst (3)
1-5: Enhance the introduction with more contextThe introduction could be more comprehensive by explaining:
- What GDBStub debugging is and its advantages
- When to use it compared to other debugging methods
- Prerequisites or limitations of this debugging approach
GDBStub Debugging ================= -You can now use the GDBStub debugging inside our Eclipse plugin to help you diagnose and debug issues on chips via Eclipse when it is in panic mode. +GDBStub debugging is a lightweight debugging mechanism that allows you to diagnose and debug issues on ESP chips when they enter panic mode. Unlike OpenOCD debugging, GDBStub doesn't require additional hardware and works directly through the serial port, making it particularly useful for: + +- Debugging crash dumps and panics +- Investigating system failures in production environments +- Debugging scenarios where JTAG/OpenOCD setup isn't possible + +This guide explains how to enable and use GDBStub debugging in the Eclipse plugin.
9-11: Add details about accessing sdkconfig fileThe instruction should clarify:
- Where to find the sdkconfig file if it doesn't exist
- What to do if the configuration editor doesn't open
-1. Launch the `sdkconfig` in project root by double-clicking on it which will open the configuration editor. +1. Launch the `sdkconfig` file in your project root directory by double-clicking on it. This will open the configuration editor. + + Note: If the sdkconfig file doesn't exist, build your project first using the ESP-IDF menu commands or run `idf.py menuconfig` in the terminal. + If the configuration editor doesn't open, right-click the file and select "Open With > SDKConfig Editor".
47-48: Add information about post-debugging stepsThe documentation should explain what users should do after stopping the debug session.
-To exit the debug session simply press the `stop` button. +To exit the debug session: + +1. Press the `stop` button in the debug toolbar +2. Switch back to the C/C++ perspective if needed +3. To resume normal operation, either: + - Use the IDF menu to restart the chip + - Stop and restart the serial monitordocs/en/additionalfeatures/nvspartitioneditor.rst (3)
8-11: Enhance the CSV example with more comprehensive casesWhile the current CSV example shows basic usage, it would be more helpful to demonstrate:
- Different data types (u16, u32, i8, i16, i32, etc.)
- String encoding variations
- Multiple namespaces
- Blob type usage
Consider expanding the example:
key,type,encoding,value <-- column header (must be the first line) namespace_name,namespace,, <-- First entry must be of type "namespace" key1,data,u8,1 key2,file,string,/path/to/file + key3,data,u16,12345 + key4,data,i32,-42 + key5,data,string,hello + second_ns,namespace,, + temp,data,u32,25 + blob1,data,blob,0123456789abcdef
13-13: Add version compatibility informationSince this feature is based on ESP-IDF's NVS Partition Generator Utility, it would be helpful to specify which versions of ESP-IDF are supported.
Consider adding version information:
.. note:: This is based on ESP-IDF `NVS Partition Generator Utility <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/storage/nvs_partition_gen.html>`_. + Supported in ESP-IDF v4.x and later versions.
4-4: Add link to NVS architecture documentationThe introduction references the NVS architecture but doesn't provide enough context about what NVS is or its purpose.
Consider expanding the introduction:
-The NVS Table Editor helps create a binary file based on key-value pairs provided in a CSV file. The resulting binary file is compatible with the NVS architecture as defined in `ESP-IDF Non Volatile Storage <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/storage/nvs_flash.html>`_. The expected CSV format is: +The NVS (Non-Volatile Storage) Table Editor is a tool that helps create binary files for storing key-value pairs in ESP32's non-volatile storage. These key-value pairs are provided in a CSV file format, and the resulting binary file is compatible with the NVS architecture as defined in `ESP-IDF Non Volatile Storage <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/storage/nvs_flash.html>`_. NVS is commonly used for storing calibration data, configuration settings, and other persistent application data. The expected CSV format is:docs/en/startproject.rst (4)
12-26: Consider enhancing the project creation instructions.While the basic steps are clear, consider adding:
- Information about where to specify the project location
- Any default settings or configurations users should be aware of
- Making the note about spaces more prominent, perhaps with a warning directive instead of a note
Create a New Project --------------------- To create a new Project in the Espressif-IDE, follow the steps below: #. Go to ``File > New > Espressif IDF Project``. #. Provide the ``Project name`` +#. Choose the project location (avoid paths containing spaces) +#. Review the default project settings #. Click ``Finish``. -.. Note:: +.. Warning:: The ESP-IDF build system does not support spaces in the paths to either ESP-IDF or to projects.
27-44: Enhance template-related documentation and build process explanation.Consider adding:
- A brief overview of available templates and their purposes
- Steps to initiate the first build
- More context about why headers appear unresolved initially
Create a New Project Using ESP-IDF Templates --------------------------------------------- Espressif-IDE also offers the ability to create a project using the ESP-IDF templates, which can be accessed by following the steps below: +Common templates include: +- ``hello_world``: A basic project to get started +- ``peripherals``: Examples for various peripheral interfaces +- ``protocols``: Examples for communication protocols + #. Go to ``File > New > Espressif IDF Project``. #. Choose a target board from the ``Select Project Target`` dropdown. #. Click on ``Create a project using one of the templates`` from the Templates section. #. Select the template you want to use and that automatically fills the project name based on the template selected. #. Click Finish. +#. To resolve the unresolved headers, right-click on the project and select ``Build Project``. .. note:: - You may see numerous unresolved headers and symbols errors in the editor, and these will only be resolved after the build process. + Initially, you may see numerous unresolved headers and symbols errors in the editor. This is normal and occurs because the project's build system needs to generate necessary configuration files. These errors will be resolved automatically after the first successful build.
45-60: Add validation steps and troubleshooting information for project import.The import instructions would benefit from:
- Steps to validate the imported project
- Common issues and their solutions
- Information about project configuration files
Import an Existing Project --------------------------- -To import an existing project into the Espressif-IDE, please make sure that is a CMake project. Follow the steps below: +To import an existing project into the Espressif-IDE, ensure it meets these prerequisites: + +- The project must be a CMake-based ESP-IDF project +- Contains a valid ``CMakeLists.txt`` file +- Contains required ESP-IDF configuration files (``sdkconfig``) + +Follow the steps below: #. Right-click in the ``Project Explorer``. #. Select ``Import..`` Menu. #. Select ``Existing IDF Project`` from ``Espressif`` import wizard menu list. #. Click ``Next``. #. Click on ``Browse...`` to choose an existing project location directory. #. Provide ``Project name`` if you wish you have a different name. #. Click ``Finish`` to import the selected project into Eclipse workspace as a CMake project. + +After import, verify the project setup: + +#. Ensure the project appears in Project Explorer +#. Verify the project target matches your development board +#. Build the project to validate the configuration + +Common issues: + +- If the project fails to import, verify the CMakeLists.txt file +- If build fails, check the ESP-IDF path and environment settings
1-62: Consider adding a troubleshooting section.The documentation is well-structured, but would benefit from a dedicated troubleshooting section at the end to address common issues users might encounter during project creation or import.
Consider adding:
- A "Troubleshooting" section with common issues and solutions
- Links to related documentation (e.g., ESP-IDF CMake documentation)
- A "Next Steps" section guiding users to subsequent documentation pages
docs/en/downloads.rst (3)
1-6: LGTM! Consider adding version information.The header structure and introduction are well-formatted. Consider adding a note about which IDE versions these download links correspond to (e.g., latest stable release, nightly builds, etc.).
8-18: Enhance security and usability of download links.While the table structure is good, consider these improvements:
- Add SHA256/MD5 checksums for security verification
- Specify if these are stable or nightly build links
- Fix the inconsistent column alignment in the table
Here's a suggested improvement:
+--------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ -| OS | Download | +| OS | Download | +==============+===========================================================================================================================================+ -| Windows | `Espressif-IDE-win32.win32.x86_64 <https://dl.espressif.com/dl/idf-eclipse-plugin/ide/Espressif-IDE-win32.win32.x86_64/latest>`_ | +| Windows | `Espressif-IDE-win32.win32.x86_64 <https://dl.espressif.com/dl/idf-eclipse-plugin/ide/Espressif-IDE-win32.win32.x86_64/latest>`_ | +| | SHA256: `` | +--------------+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
21-33: Enhance macOS security notice clarity.The security notice provides helpful information, but could be improved:
- Add a note about requiring Terminal access
- Clarify that download paths may vary
- Consider adding troubleshooting steps if commands fail
Add this content before the first command:
.. note:: These commands must be run in Terminal.app, which requires administrator privileges. Adjust the paths according to your actual download location..github/workflows/pr-comment.yml (2)
7-9: Consider adding explicit permissions declaration.While the job configuration is correct, it's recommended to explicitly declare the required GitHub token permissions for better security and clarity.
Add the following permission configuration:
jobs: pr_comment: + permissions: + issues: write + pull-requests: write if: github.event.workflow_run.event == 'pull_request' && github.event.workflow_run.conclusion == 'success' runs-on: ubuntu-latest
13-15: Enhance attribution comment for better documentation.While the code origin is noted, it would be helpful to include the license type and version of the referenced code explicitly.
- # This snippet is public-domain, taken from - # https://github.com/oprypin/nightly.link/blob/master/.github/workflows/pr-comment.yml + # This snippet is adapted from: + # Source: https://github.com/oprypin/nightly.link/blob/master/.github/workflows/pr-comment.yml + # License: Public Domain + # Version/Commit: <add commit hash or version>docs/en/additionalfeatures/appleveltracing.rst (2)
4-4: Consider using version-independent links.The example project links are hardcoded to specific ESP-IDF versions (v5.0 and v5.1). Consider using version-independent links or documenting the version compatibility matrix to make maintenance easier.
23-30: Add a practical example of the start command.While the command syntax and arguments are well documented, adding a concrete example would help users understand the practical usage better. Consider adding something like:
- ``skip_size``: Bytes to skip at the start. Default: 0. + + Example: + ``` + start file:///home/user/trace.txt 1 1000000 5 0 0 + ``` + This example starts tracing with: + - Output file: /home/user/trace.txt + - Poll period: 1ms + - Maximum trace size: 1MB + - Stop timeout: 5 seconds + - No wait for halt + - No skip sizedocs/en/troubleshooting.rst (4)
18-18: Consider restructuring the prerequisites section for better clarity.The prerequisites section contains important version compatibility information that could be more prominent. Consider restructuring it as follows:
-**Prerequisites:** The ``hints.yml`` file is available from ESP-IDF v5.0 and higher. If you are using an older version, you can manually download the ``hints.yml`` file from `here <https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/blob/master/tools/idf_py_actions/hints.yml>`_ and save it to ``esp-idf/tools/idf_py_actions/``. To download the file, right-click the ``Raw`` button and select ``Save as...``. +**Prerequisites:** + +* ESP-IDF v5.0 or higher: The ``hints.yml`` file is included by default +* ESP-IDF versions below v5.0: + 1. Download ``hints.yml`` from `ESP-IDF GitHub repository <https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/blob/master/tools/idf_py_actions/hints.yml>`_ (use "Raw" button > "Save as...") + 2. Save the file to ``esp-idf/tools/idf_py_actions/`` directory
41-42: Consider adding more context about error logs.The section could benefit from additional information about:
- Log retention policy (how long logs are kept, max file size)
- Common scenarios where error logs are particularly useful
59-61: Enhance Console View documentation with additional details.Consider adding information about:
- Different types of messages that appear in the console (build output, debug messages, etc.)
- How to filter console output for specific types of messages
- How to clear the console
77-79: Add common troubleshooting scenarios for IDF tools installation.Consider enhancing this section with:
- Common error patterns during installation and their solutions
- Information about log persistence (whether logs are preserved between sessions)
- Steps to take when installation fails
docs/en/marketplaceupdate.rst (1)
38-52: Consider adding a marketplace screenshotFor consistency with other sections and better user guidance, consider adding a screenshot of the Eclipse Marketplace search results showing the ESP-IDF Eclipse Plugin.
docs/en/installation.rst (2)
25-27: Consider separating macOS and Linux instructions.While the instructions are similar, each platform might have specific requirements or steps. Consider:
- Separating into distinct sections
- Specifying minimum versions for prerequisites (Java, Python, Git)
- Adding platform-specific installation commands or package names
47-49: Consider making the Python note more prominent.This is a crucial note about Python virtual environments that could prevent installation issues. Consider:
- Moving it earlier in the document
- Making it a warning instead of a note
- Adding it to the prerequisites section
docs/en/flashdevice.rst (5)
10-13: Enhance image accessibility with a more descriptive alt textThe current alt text "flash" is too generic. Consider providing a more descriptive alt text that explains what the image shows.
- :alt: flash + :alt: Flash operation launch configuration interface
8-8: Add UI location details for the launch buttonThe instruction could be more specific about where to find the launch button in the IDE interface.
-Flash operation can be initiated with just a click of a launch button |run_icon| and it's auto-configured to flash the application with the default flash command, i.e., ``idf.py -p PORT flash``. +Flash operation can be initiated with just a click of the launch button |run_icon| in the Eclipse toolbar. The button is auto-configured to flash the application using the default flash command: ``idf.py -p PORT flash``.
30-30: Use platform-agnostic paths in examplesThe example path is macOS-specific. Consider providing examples for different operating systems or using a more generic path format.
-#. The flash command looks like this: ``/Users/user-name/esp/esp-idf/tools/idf.py -p /dev/cu.SLAB_USBtoUART flash``. +#. The flash command looks like this: + * Windows: ``%userprofile%\esp\esp-idf\tools\idf.py -p COM1 flash`` + * Linux/macOS: ``$HOME/esp/esp-idf/tools/idf.py -p /dev/ttyUSB0 flash``
69-71: Avoid hardcoding version numbers in multiple placesThe OpenOCD version is repeated multiple times. Consider using a variable or note to make version updates easier to maintain.
-* Download the required `v0.10.0-esp32-20201202 <https://github.com/espressif/openocd-esp32/releases/tag/v0.10.0-esp32-20201202>`_ version or a higher one for JTAG Flashing. -* Go to `.../.espressif/tools/openocd-esp32/`, create a new folder named ``v0.10.0-esp32-20201202``, and extract OpenOCD there. -* The resulting path to OpenOCD might look like: ``.../.espressif/tools/openocd-esp32/v0.10.0-esp32-20201202/openocd-esp32/...`` +.. |openocd_version| replace:: v0.10.0-esp32-20201202 + +* Download the required |openocd_version| or a higher version from the `releases page <https://github.com/espressif/openocd-esp32/releases/tag/|openocd_version|>`_ for JTAG Flashing. +* Go to the `.espressif/tools/openocd-esp32/` directory in your home folder, create a new folder with the version number (e.g., |openocd_version|), and extract OpenOCD there. +* The resulting path to OpenOCD will be relative to your home directory: `.espressif/tools/openocd-esp32/|openocd_version|/openocd-esp32/`
78-78: Consider adding a troubleshooting sectionThe documentation would benefit from a troubleshooting section that covers common issues users might encounter during the flashing process, such as:
- Port access permission issues
- Common JTAG connection problems
- Flash verification failures
Would you like me to help draft a troubleshooting section?
docs/en/additionalfeatures/heaptracing.rst (5)
1-6: Add ESP-IDF version compatibility information.Consider adding information about which ESP-IDF versions support this feature and any version-specific considerations. This helps users understand compatibility requirements upfront.
41-41: Add context for line number reference.The reference to "line 102" is arbitrary without context. Consider:
- Removing the specific line number reference
- Or explaining the significance of this location
- Or using a more descriptive way to identify the stopping point
55-55: Expand on symbols file requirements.The note about symbols file needs more details:
- Explain what a symbols file is
- Specify how to ensure the project is built with symbols
- Add any relevant build configuration steps
74-74: Clarify memory leak detection explanation.The description of potential memory leaks could be more precise. Consider:
- Explaining what constitutes a "potential" memory leak
- Describing the conditions that trigger the orange highlighting
- Adding best practices for confirming actual leaks
1-87: Documentation is comprehensive and well-structured.The documentation provides a thorough guide to heap tracing functionality with clear instructions and helpful screenshots. While some minor clarifications would be beneficial, the overall quality is good.
Consider enhancing with:
- A troubleshooting section for common issues
- Example scenarios or use cases
- Performance impact considerations
docs/en/openocddebugging.rst (6)
6-6: Remove extra blank lineThere's an unnecessary extra blank line that should be removed for consistency.
16-16: Add blank line after sentenceIn RST, sentences ending with periods should be followed by a blank line for proper formatting.
-Please navigate through each tab and configure project specific settings. +Please navigate through each tab and configure project specific settings. +
28-28: Enhance "Config options" explanationThe reference to "Config options" needs more context. Consider adding:
- A brief explanation of what these options are
- A link to the section where these options are detailed
89-89: Use consistent terminologyThe document switches between "application" and "project". Stick to one term throughout the documentation for clarity.
112-118: Consider adding keyboard shortcutsThe customization section could be enhanced by adding common debugging keyboard shortcuts (e.g., step over, step into, continue, etc.) which are essential for efficient debugging.
120-126: Enhance troubleshooting sectionConsider adding common version compatibility issues and their solutions, as mentioned in the PR objectives about compatibility notes for different versions of Espressif-IDE and ESP-IDF.
docs/en/faqs.rst (3)
131-140: Enhance launch targets section with platform-specific details.Consider adding:
- Platform-specific workspace locations
- Warning about manually editing preference files
- Instructions for backing up preferences before editing
How to delete Launch Targets from the Eclipse --------------------------------------------- There is no UI option to delete launch targets directly from Eclipse, however, this can be achieved by following the below instructions: -Go to the Eclipse workspace directory. For example: In my case `/Users/myName/myTesteclipseWorkspace`. +Go to the Eclipse workspace directory: +- Windows: `%USERPROFILE%\eclipse-workspace` +- Linux: `~/eclipse-workspace` +- macOS: `~/Eclipse` + +Note: Back up your workspace settings before proceeding.
141-147: Add log file location and retention details.Please add:
- Default log file location for each platform
- Log rotation/cleanup policy
- Maximum log file size
1-153: Overall documentation quality review.While the FAQ content is comprehensive, consider:
- Adding a table of contents for better navigation
- Including version information in the header
- Adding cross-references to related documentation
- Implementing a consistent format for command examples

| 4. The "Executable path" for OpenOCD is based on eclipse preferences, which are configured after tools installation. Check if the "Actual executable" is correct and if it's not, then likely the tools installation went wrong, so you need to check if tools installed correctly to avoid possible problems. If it's still not correct after tools installation, click on "Browse" and select the path to `openocd.exe` manually. | ||

| Why Java 11 recommended for IDF Eclipse Plugin? | ||
| ----------------------------------------------- | ||
| We recommend using Java 11 (that's the latest LTS version from Oracle) and above while working with IDF Eclipse Plugin considering Eclipse 2020-06 has a requirement for Java 11 to work with the CDT. Here are some important pointers from Eclipse. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Installing CDT 9.11 on Eclipse 2020-06 and later requires a workaround when using Java 8 | ||
| Check this - https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewIn911#Release | ||
|
|
||
| CDT 9.11 only requires Java 8 to run. However, a new feature in Eclipse 2020-06 and later means that the install wizard may prevent installation. The workaround is to disable "Verify provisioning operation is compatible with the currently running JRE" in Windows -> Preferences -> Install/Update. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=564407#c1. | ||
|
|
||
| ### CDT 10.0 required Java 11 or later | ||
| Check this - https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewIn100 | ||
|
|
||
| Starting with CDT 10.0, Java 11 or later is required to run CDT. This aligns with the requirements of Eclipse IDE which also requires Java 11 to run starting in 2020-09. | ||

3-10: Consider enhancing the toolbar location description and icon visibility.While the build icon integration is good, consider:
- Specifying the toolbar's location (e.g., "in the main toolbar at the top of the IDE")
- Increasing the icon size for better visibility on high-DPI displays
- :height: 16px + :height: 24px
11-21: Enhance step descriptions with additional context.The steps are clear but would benefit from additional explanations:
- Clarify what "Run" means in the Launch Mode context
- Explain the auto-detection mechanism for Launch Configuration
- Add a note about what users should expect during and after the build process
Consider adding a note section like:
.. note:: The build process will compile your code and generate binary files. You can monitor the build progress in the Console view at the bottom of the IDE. A successful build will show "Build Finished" message.
38-43: Consider adding more relevant references.The references section could be expanded to include:
- Troubleshooting build issues
- CMake configuration documentation
- ESP-IDF build system documentation
Consider adding these entries to the toctree:
Build System Troubleshooting <troubleshooting/build> Advanced CMake Configuration <cmake/advanced> ESP-IDF Build System <https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-guides/build-system.html>

51-53: Add information about disabling CDT IndexerConsider adding important details about disabling the indexer:
- Whether the setting persists across IDE restarts
- Potential impact on existing projects
- How to verify the LSP indexer is working correctly
58-58: Consider adding a Troubleshooting sectionTo improve user experience, consider adding a "Troubleshooting" section that covers:
- Common configuration issues
- Known limitations
- Error messages and their solutions
- Steps to verify correct LSP setup
