Conflicting documentation - debugprobe on Pico 2

Open arc12 opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

A This page - https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/pico-series.html#debugging-using-another-pico-series-device - states: "Pico 2 is not yet supported by debuprobe_on_pico debugging software. "

B The getting started guide states : "One Pico or Pico 2 can reprogram and debug another using the debugprobe firmware, which transforms the Pico or Pico 2 into a USB → SWD and UART bridge."

C. The README for this repo describes how to build debugprobe_on_pico for Pico 2.

Is "A" in need of revision?

Thanks for reporting this. You seem to be correct -- we need to update https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/pico-series.html#debugging-using-another-pico-series-device to indicate that Pico 2 is now supported.

Does it take a while for the changes to be applied to the docs site? I'm still seeing the warning message on the website, which had me double-checking for a while. No biggie regardless, just letting you know in case it wasn't submitted.

Yes. The documentation has already been fixed on the develop branch but it won't be visible at https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/pico-series.html#debugging-using-another-pico-series-device until @nathan-contino merges the develop branch into the master branch :slightly_smiling_face:
