Hi,

I was wondering if it's possible to use the openocd for embedded software within a docker?


I'm using a docker toolchain for building, but would like the openocd to check INSIDE the docker toolchain for it's tool...

Is that possible?

 

Thanks

Hello!

Currently there is no way to use openocd inside Docker. Feel free to create a feature request in our tracker - https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/CPP.

Meanwhile you can try the following:

  1. Install openocd on the local machine,
  2. In CLion create a "OpenOCD Download & Run" configuration
    • click on the three-dots icon next to the Executable binary field and select the local (important!) binary, which is downloaded automatically in case of the Docker toolchain,
    • in the Debugger field select the bundled GDB,
  3. Create the .gdbinit file in the project root and configure correct path mappings in it,
  4. Enable reading project-specific .gdbinit - https://www.jetbrains.com/help/clion/configuring-debugger-options.html#enable-initfiles-root,
  5. Try to run/debug the "OpenOCD Download & Run" configuration.

I haven't tested that on my side, so can't guarantee anything, but feel free to try.
