Subject: devtool: ide-sdk: vscode replace scripts
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3b6d435fbae1e6616577e50229ba86927d3c79f6;p=thirdparty%2Fopenembedded%2Fopenembedded-core-contrib.git

devtool: ide-sdk: vscode replace scripts

Write the ssh command to start gdbserver on target directly into the
tasks.json. This avoids the need to create one more script file on the
host. It also simplifies manual modifications of VSCode's standard
tasks.json which is much more handy than modifying multiple proprietary
scripts used to launch gdbserver.
