Using VScode as editor

mike morgen

Hi,
I want to know how to use VScode as a replacement for the keil editor? Is there any way or tutorials?

I have found some ways for STM32 using make files,

But I want to use c++14, and I do want to use keil RL libraries and also I'm not using STM32, Is it possible? how about debugging using j-link?

why Keil does not replace it's old editor with a free modern editor like VScode?

    As already noted, you can use any editor you like to edit your code - you don't have to use the one built-in to the IDE.

    Many programmer's editors do have the facility to call external tools; eg, to build your code.

    "why Keil does not replace it's old editor with a free modern editor like VScode?"

    You mean this: code.visualstudio.com/.../cpp ?

    It says:

    "C/C++ support for Visual Studio Code is provided by a Microsoft C/C++ extension ... The extension is still in preview ... "

    Which probably answers your question - it isn't finished yet!
