[OpenOCD-user] Warn : ignoring character 0x47

[Ubaldo T. <uba...@gm...>]

Hi!

If I run openocd on terminal with the right board/selection and I connect to it through with arm-none-eabi-gdb -ex "target extended-remote localhost:3333” everything works fine and I can happily debug my code.

However, if I run openocd on a terminal and I try to call gdb through some other tool  (I am running  Vimspector on Vim, but that apparently the same issue happens with VSCode as well, see below), I get a lot of warnings displayed on the openocd console like the following:

Warn : ignoring character 0x47

and obviously nothing is working. 

I googled a bit and I found some people encountering the same issues although on different platforms. Here are some examples:

Does anybody know why that happens and how to solve it?

Best,
