Using different ESP-IDF versions

Postby MateusGL » Mon Dec 19, 2022 3:28 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to use different ESP-IDF versions inside Espressif IDE v2.5.0.

At the moment, to change the ESP-IDF version I go to "Espressif -> Download and Configure ESP-IDF" and select the version.

The problem is that projects already in the workspace stay in a broken state, trying to use the older toolchain, as shown in the third line in the log below (-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE arg). This log was produced after changing the ESP-IDF version from 4.4 to 5.0.

To solve that, I need to delete the project build folder, delete the project from workspace, checking the "Delete all related configurations" box, and reimport the project. After that, the compilation is successfull, with the new ESP-IDF version.

Is there a better way to do that? Is it possible to edit the project configurations manually to change the toolchain, without being necessary to remove and reimport the project?

Thank you!

Hello,

I posted a quick write-up on the topic "switching ESP-IDF Versions in Espresiff-IDE" now. Could you please check and see if that helps?

Hi ESP_kondalkolipaka,

I think the option "ESP-IDF: Project Full Clean" is available only in the last Espressif-IDE. After upgrading from 2.4.0 to 2.7.0 I was able to follow your steps and everything worked as expected. Thank you!
