Building Debug Version of an Application. It should be fairly easy to adapt the steps for other applications, frameworks and operating systems. The Espressif SDK version that was used is 1.4.0. Also all sample commands will be for Linux.

This article discusses software debuggingВ only which means that there is no need for JTag devices or any additional hardware.ДЇor simplicity and consistency with the previous articles ( part 1, part 2, part 3) I will make the explanations while creating a demo app in an ESP8266 framework called Sming. And this article will try to help you compile an application in Debug mode for ESP8266, flash it on the device and finally make a debug session using the console line debugger GDB or a visual tool like Eclipse CDT. Thanks to the efforts of the ESP-GDBStub team this is now possible. There is an open-source toolchain, there are open-source Integrated Development Environments (IDE) for C/C++ like Eclipse CDT, but the magic ingredient was still missing. Until recently there were no powerfulВ open-source tools that can help us debug a program running on anВ ESP. Debugging on a device, like the ESP8266 microcontroller (aka ESP), is even more helpful because it facilitatesВ us to understand how the device is actually working. It can save us a lot of time and efforts duringВ troubleshooting.

I also used 9600 baud rates on my Arduino Uno and 115200 baud rates on my ESP8266 (I of course have also tried changing the baud rates to check if there was a printout).Debugging is a powerful technique that allows us to understand better the inner workings and logic of an application.

My code is really simple, just using Serial.write(something) on my Arduino Uno and Serial.get() on my EPS8266 and both written on my loop() method, not setup(). Is there any way of debugging whether my sent data has been received properly?(This is more important since I need to make sure that my data is the correct data) Or is there a way to just debugging whether the communication succeeds? But when I tried it, the data was not sent, which makes me wondering if the trouble lies on the communication between EPS8266 and Arduino Uno, or enabled dips number is wrong for getting the printout. Translations(I know it's self-explaining, but just in case): Koneksi = connection, Komunikasi = communicationДЇrom the image above, I saw that there is a way to debug EPS8266 and Arduino Uno's communication, which is enabling dips number 1, 2, 3, and 4.

I have also watched an Indonesian YouTube video that shows me how to upload the code for both modules (but not for debugging purpose), but I noticed it has more actions than the tutorial gave me, I will just post the actions below: But by doing so, I will not get the printout that I purposely tell it to (for debugging purpose). I'm using UNO+WiFi R3 ATmega328P+ESP8266, 32Mb flash, USB-TTL CH340G, Micro-USB chip and by following this tutorial, I know that I have to enable dips number 1 and 2. Now the problem is how will Arduino Uno send the data to ESP8266 so that ESP8266 can make an API POST request as I mention above to send the data. Until now, both module works perfectly fine separately (ESP8266 has succeeded connecting to WiFi and Arduino Uno can get the data from somewhere). I have a little project that includes connecting EPS8266 to the internet and send an API POST request from the data that is passed from my Arduino Uno.
