IAR Embedded Workbench extension

This extension provides IAR Embedded Workbench project integration to automatize build and Intellisense support. As IAR works on Windows environment only, the extension is not been tested on different systems.

This is NOT an official IAR Systems extension.

Usage

After creating the iar.json file inside .vscode folder, make sure to enable the extension on your workspace or global settings (default false):

{
    "iar.enabled":true
}

Then just run F6 to start Make. Then just run F7 to start Build. Then just run F8 to start Clean. The extension automatically replaces your c_cpp_properties.json [Microsoft C++ Tools][cpptools] configuration to matches the IAR Project ones. It supports browsing to external files, includepath, common defines and user included one.

Configuration

Example iar.json configuration:

{
    "version": 1,
    "path": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\IAR Systems\\Embedded Workbench\\",
    "project": "${workspaceFolder}\\Test.ewp",
    "config": "Debug"
}
