esp32c3 set-target

[borisbergman]

I use vscode, esp-idf 5.0.1 and ubuntu 22.04. When I open an Example (gatt_client in this case, but also hello_world), and try to adjust the target to esp32c3 (or any other esp32 patform) I get this message. IDF_TARGET variable points to "esp32". What goes wrong and how to I fix this?

Code: Select all

$ idf.py set-target esp32c3
Adding "set-target"'s dependency "fullclean" to list of commands with default set of options.

Did you try clearing (or removing entirely) the build directory, as the message said?

[borisbergman]

Well as far as I can see the message sais no build directory found, nothing to clean, which corresponds to having no build directory. I found out it's caused by the vscode esp-idf terminal window. When I open a regular terminal and run . ~/esp/esp-idf/export.sh the conversion works fine.
