How to add application-specific flash options

If required, you can configure applications with additional flash options: softreset, skipBuild, or extraArgs, or any combination of these. When set, these options are applied to all flash commands run through the UI that target that application.

The application-specific flash options are set in the binding configuration file.

To apply these options:

1. Open the binding configuration file.

2. Create the following entry, customizing it to your needs:

   {
       "nrf-connect.applicationOptions": {
           "/path/to/your/application": {
               "flash": {
                   "softreset": true,
                   "skipBuild": true,
                   "extraArgs": ["--custom-arg", "--another-arg"]
               }
           }
       }
   }
