mbed detect should show firmware information #541
Description
mbed detect could be more useful if, in addition to the name of the target platform, it could also show the firmware version, a subset of what the mbedls command shows. For example, the current mbed detect output shows:
[mbed] Detected K64F, port COM4, mounted D:
[mbed] Supported toolchains for K64F
+--------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+
| Target | mbed OS 2 | mbed OS 5 | ARM | GCC_ARM | IAR |
+--------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+
| K64F | Supported | Supported | Supported | Supported | Supported |
+--------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+
Supported targets: 1
Supported toolchains: 3
It would be helpful to have at least one more column describing the DAPLink version, for example:
+--------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------------+
| Target | mbed OS 2 | mbed OS 5 | ARM | GCC_ARM | IAR | daplink_version |
+--------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------------+
| K64F | Supported | Supported | Supported | Supported | Supported | 0243 |
+--------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------+-----------------+
This could be useful information for debugging in particular. One case where it would have come in handy is I was having an issue with the DAPLink version being out of date, causing a crash when the .bin was dragged onto the board. I wasn't aware of the command mbedls and if I had the firmware information immediately available it could have saved me a bit of time and headache.
