  • I am dealing with a esp32-c6 and the associated ESP-IDF
  • I am on linux, debian derivative, devuan, OLD (as in 2024-03) versions of eclipse work well, meaning the system works
  • I have the idf.py app working, can download and run sample code using idf.py
  • the whole toolkit is a jungle, because "think different" and letś make a circle as an hexagon
  • current version of eclipse + the ESP32 plugin result in a SLOW molassa + frequent freezes + editor panel constantly showing unreliable errors, a mess

so, I installed codeblocks and I can see the code, next step is how to interface CB to ESP-IDF, what I did

  • Create a Makefile with a single rule Release
  • always call a shell script that setup the IDF environment and call idf.py app
  • redirect all messages away from make and into a log and err file

the above works, meaning I can "build" from CB and it actually build the app

BUT I am missing, totally, compilation errors, include path

so, the question is

what could be the simplest strategy to "interface" codeblocks to the esp32 build environment ?

yes, I know, not really a codeblocks issue.....  I am posting the same question to esp32 forums and hopefully something good will happen
