Dear Alan, Greetings! Many thanks for your suggestions.
> Note that I already adapted it to use your Atmel ICE Device S/N. I just use: $ > sudo openocd -f openocd.cfg Thank you Alan. I just pasted your openocd configuration and invoked openocd just like you suggested. Unfortunately, I still see the same problem I had yesterday. Here is the output: raman@foo:~/Skullets$ sudo openocd -f openocd.cfg Open On-Chip Debugger 0.12.0+dev-00342-g21f17260d (2023-09-28-16:32) Licensed under GNU GPL v2 For bug reports, read http://openocd.org/doc/doxygen/bugs.html DEPRECATED! use 'adapter driver' not 'interface' DEPRECATED! use 'adapter serial' not 'cmsis_dap_serial' Info : auto-selecting first available session transport "swd". To override use 'transport select <transport>'. DEPRECATED! use 'adapter srst delay' not 'adapter_nsrst_delay' DEPRECATED! use 'adapter srst pulse_width' not 'adapter_nsrst_assert_width' adapter srst pulse_width: 100 Info : Listening on port 6666 for tcl connections Info : Listening on port 4444 for telnet connections Error: unable to find a matching CMSIS-DAP device raman@foo:~/Skullets$ But I also confirm that the Atmel ICE works fine with Microchip Studio OR `atprogram', the command line tool that comes with it.

So, besides selecting the right files, it also needs the > right CONFIGs Understand. But is there a way to also get the config files onto Microchip Studio? OR are these config files temporary (/tmp for example) and not physical config files. Just a quick workflow I imagine: configure the NuttX build for a specific target (say, avr32dev1) like we typically do on Cygwin. The ./tools/configure.sh -c avr32dev:nsh doesn't fail. Perhaps there's a way to employ a tool to recurse through the NuttX codebase and copy the C files and config files - assuming a default configuration? But if I have a rough idea of the structure (and where to look for these file and their target destination for pickup), I can help whip up something quick and dirty as a proof of concept. I can also imagine this: I haven't tried this so far but I'm sure Microchip Studio is powered by Visual Studio. Its project configuration is listed here [1], for example. I was just exploring to evaluate/gauge if we can generate the cproj file at all. Just thoughts so far. In essence, I wanted to check with you if CMake/GNU Make do something with the build that might otherwise be tricky to achieve using just Microchip Studio? Especially, on the Windows environment? Edit: I just ran `make -n' within nuttxspace/nuttx after configuring the build for avr32dev1. Oh, it such a long recipe! :) I understand it can be tricky. I haven't read the echo to its entirely. > Yes, you can git checkout an old version tag (i.e 7.x or 8.x) of nuttx and > also the same version of apps. Understand. > Nice!
