Failing to open Terminal - bbeuken - 06-01-2025

A most recent version of VS2022 seems to have a reported flaw in its ability to open up a terminal when debugging code on a target system

https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Updated-VS-2022-and-unable-to-run-termin/10905070

This basically means that when you run your code on the Pi you won't get any of the printf, or other console output comments being displayed on your VS terminal or debug output.. This is quite a pain, especially for me at the moment as I am testing a lot of Pi3 updates and need those printf's to be sure code is working.

But I'm hoping I can roll it back to a working version and wait for MS to report a proper fix.

If you have just installed VS2022, ermm not much we can do until MS fix it.

I have managed to resolve the issue for now, by going back to my old faithful VS2019 it is all working fine on that.

As I point out in the book, its in the nature of software to change, but not always reliably.
