Change ESP32 registers and peripherals in debug session

Hello,

I was able to configure my vscode to enter debug when using ESP-PROG that is connected to ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1-N8 JTAG.
I can see watch, disassembly, memory, stack, registers & ESP-IDF: Peripherals.
For some reason I can't change the value of any of the registers or ESP peripherals. Do I need a special configuration in the OpenOCD or anything else for that? Is it even possible to change peripheral's/registers values during debug in ESP?
All modern IDEs allows the programmer to change registers on the fly...

Hi ilangr,

The functionality is not there yet for the ESP-IDF VS Code Extension since no one requested it, but we will keep it in mind for future releases.

If you have any feature requests, I would strongly encourage you to create them on our github repository: https://github.com/espressif/vscode-esp ... ion/issues
