Adding launch.json for the debug probe #401
Conversation
Renamed to reflect the type of debugger. Added openocd parameter so set the correct adapter speed
Includes instructions for the debug probe

Just to be pedantic, https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/debug-probe.html is actually the documentation URL; the product URL is https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/debug-probe/ 😉 |

Slight aside, I would be happy to contribute small PRs to the documentation - or is that internal only? |
The documentation at https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/ is open for PRs at https://github.com/raspberrypi/documentation/tree/develop The PDF documentation at https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/ isn't open, but you can submit suggestions at https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-feedback/issues |

There was a problem hiding this comment.

Also, would be great to document about udev rules: https://github.com/raspberrypi/openocd/blob/rp2040-v0.12.0/contrib/60-openocd.rules when using openocd with cortex-debug extension. |
Currently, none of the candidate launch.json files in the ide/vscode folder work with the (relatively new) official Debug Probe. Although similar to the pico-probe, there are some small differences. It took a considerable time to work out the changes needed to get it to work.
The proposal here is to add an additional file (and reference in the readme) with these changes. It is also labelled launch-debug-probe.json to match the product name.
The README is also updated (although I am not sure about including the URL of the product page - is that a stable URL?)
