Hi Sunish!
I'm always afraid to upgrade! :)
No special extensions than "Cortex-Debug" for debugging apps for STM32
micros and two Pascal extensions ("Pascal" and "Pascal-Formatter").
My Visual Pin Configurator app generates projects for VSCode and
Cortex-Debug extension requires a certain format for it's configuration
file. But I saved an old version of VSCode in my repository so no problem
here. I mainly thought that if a FreeBSD user would have liked to use your
extension that wouldn't have been possible as they have an older version
available.
