Expected behavior

Hello, I'd like to only see warning/ bugs in user generated code.

Is there a way to properly exclude these?

Thanks,

Actual behavior (suspected bug)

I see lots of warnings in the ESP SDK

Hi @OOHehir, thank you for reporting this issue.
Unfortunately, this is currently unavailable. We're aware of the problem and are working on a fix, where the default directory will be set to the project directory (without the ESP-IDF path).

Ok, many thanks. Looks like a very useful addition to the esp toolset though!
