Description

When the compile for linux finishes the program tries to show the usual memory usage summary build information which obviously it can't do.

eg:

error: cannot read memory types file: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/wilsonj/.espressif/python_env/idf5.5_py3.13_env/lib/python3.13/site-packages/esp_idf_size/ng/../chip_info/linux.yaml'

• The terminal process "/home/wilsonj/.espressif/python_env/idf5.5_py3.13_env/bin/python '/home/wilsonj/Documents/foldered/espressif/esp-idf/tools/idf_size.py', '/home/wilsonj/Documents/foldered/espressif/vscode/esp-idf/i400s_temp__/gpio-relay/test-apps/test-gpio-relay-linux/build/test-gpio-relay-linux.map'" terminated with exit code: 1.

You can set "idf.enableSizeTaskAfterBuildTask": false in your project's .vscode/settings.json to disable the IDF Size task after build task.

Thanks for the hint. Will remember to check and double check the docs next time. I didn't notice it when I looked, so my mistake. Will close.
