Running on Windows10

[kurtwerbrouck]

hello,

i am trying to get the decoder installed and working.
I tried all what i can but still no succesfull.
example i have a test.ino in the foder c:\test, then i create the folders
tools
EspExceptionDecoder
tool
EspExceptionDecoder.jar (is this also a folder a the file name?)
=> C:\test\tools\EspExceptionDecoder\tool\EspExceptionDecoder.jar.

When i am unzipping the decoder file i place them into the EspExceptionDecoder.jar folder?

If the EspExceptionDecoder.jar is the actual program, where is it located in the zip folder?

Hope you can help

tools\EspExceptionDecoder\tool\EspExceptionDecoder.jar should be under your Arduino folder, probably in Program Files (x86)

Windows 10
I have the EspExceptionDecoder.jar file installed in the correct folder. When I access the tool via the 'Tools' menu, 'ESP Exception Decoder' item, a file browser window is opened looking for an *.elf file. Makes me think this tool is meant for Linux only! The documentation does not state Linux only, so I'm not sure. The only reference to Linux is a comment to the effect that perhaps an updated library is needed on newer distributions. So, the question is: Will this tool work on Windows 10?

Compile (upload not necessary) your sketch and try again

Hi, I'm stuck in same problem.
@rpehlm @Kurkyxp are you succeed to build this tool in window 10?

I was just testing it in Windows 10, works as expected. I'm running Arduino IDE 1.8.13 (not the Windows Store Version). I have copied the folder "EspExceptionDecoder" from the Zip file to C:\Users<Username>\Documents\Arduino\tools.
When I start it from the Tools menu, it asks me for a stack trace, and I paste the line that starts with "Backtrace" from the serial console into that window. Immediately, I get a nice looking stacktrace that tells me exactly where the code crashed.
