Clion example project for embedded Linux debug

===

This project demonstrates how to cross-compile and debug an application for Raspberry Pi(RPi).

A workaround for a feature request

[CPP-23898](https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/CPP-23898) is also implemented here.

The project is made for Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit, release date 21-Feb-2023,

Kernel version 5.15, Debian version 11 (bullseye)

Raspberry Pi is configured to have IP address 192.168.0.101, *sshd* to be started on boot.

Cross-Compilation

---

RPi-compatible toolchain & sysroot are installed to 

its standard location *C:\SysGCC\raspberry64*

To optimize binary size a special build step is added (see `add_custom_target` clause in `CMakeLists.txt`).

 

Debugging

---

A run configuration of type `Remote GDB Server` copies the stripped binary to the target board 

and starts it there under gdbserver. 

Generated '.gdbinit' script forces gdb to use symbols from full (i.e. non-stripped) binary.

WSL/Docker requirements

---

* Ubuntu 22.04LTS
