General • Re: Is there a minimum list of files to archive a project?

Just to be clear. I’m not importing an old project (which does behave the same). I click the Raspberry Pi Pico Project (chip carrier icon below the raspberry). I then click New Project from Example. For name I enter blink. For board type I select Pico. For location, I enter a path to an empty directory. For Debugger. I leave the default set to Debug Probe. I then click Create.

I then rename the build directory buildSave then click the compile button. ninja.exe complains that there is no build directory. If I create a build directory, ninja complains that build/build.ninja is missing.

This seems broken to me. I notice that .vscode/tasks.json has this ninja stuff that points to the build directory.

Is anyone else able to use the Pico addin under windows for SDK 2.1 and able to blow away the build directory and rebuild?

If I close the folder but instead of opening it up I import the project, it will recreate all the crap needed in build and the project will compile.

So, there is a way to archive a project without the build directory but you need to know the secret of importing instead of opening in order to recreate the project. This is very different behavior from version 1.5.
