Trying out some setup combination with "Ac6 System Workbench" (Eclipse plugin) and Stm32cubemx

• create projects using System Workbench (eclipse plugin)
  • Name = Conclusion-01
  • ⦿ Cube Hal
  • ☑ Add low level drivers in this project
  • ⦿ As sources in the application project
  • about the CMSIS, HAL_Driver and Utility directory (and maybe even the startup directory), I think I'll move it later to a central place (e.g. Foundation)
• create CubeMX project with the same name
  • locate it into a subfolder (cubemx) of the System Workbench project
  • Project
    • Name = Conclusion-01
    • Project Location = C:\Papa\git\Joe\Stm32-Tools-Evaluation\Conclusion-01\cubemx
    • Toolchain = SW4STM32
    • and ignore the generated .project / .cproject

    • generate code
• add cubemx include path and source path to eclipse project
• main redirect, missing include in gpio.c,
• TODO ...

  • TODO: check if we could also delete system_stm32f4xx.c, startup_stm32f401xc.s, LinkerScript.ld
  • rename main.c to Main.cxx
  • add eclipse links for Foundation, Cubehal and Freertos
  • Path and Symbols, include paths (see below)

  • Stm32F4-SW-cubehal

    • Firmware Configuration = ⦿ Cube Hal
      • Stm32Cube_FW_F4_V1.9.0 ☐ Extract all firmware in separate folder ☐ Add low level drivers in this project → project looks same as "nofw"

  • Stm32F4-SW-cubehal-sepfolder

    • Firmware Configuration = ⦿ Cube Hal ☑ Extract all firmware in separate folder ☐ Add low level drivers in this project → project looks same as "nofw" and "Stm32F4-SW-cubehal" → cube hal sources were put to to workspace/STM32Cube_FW_F4_V1.9.0 (23608 files, 7288 directories, 1,1 GiB!)
    • including things like "audio_sample.wav", "SetupSTM32CubeUpdater-4.2.0.exe" ... → I'd moved them to my git repo

  • Stm32F4-SW-cubehal-source

    • Firmware Configuration = ⦿ Cube Hal ☐ Extract all firmware in separate folder ☑ Add low level drivers in this project ⦿ As sources in the application project ⦾ As static external libraries → adds 3 directories (CMSIS, HAL_Driver, Utilities) to the project (171 files, 33 directories, 64 MiB) → much more stuff in .cproject → !!! for unknown reason, this generates a project with a linker script differen to e.g. Stm32F4-SW-cubehal
    • Stm32F4-SW-cubehal: Linker script for STM32F401VCTx
    • but here: Linker script for STM32F401CC
    • http://www.openstm32.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=1438 → different things in startup directory
    • Stm32F4-SW-cubehal: startup_stm32.s (author="Ac6")
    • Stm32F4-SW-cubehal-source: versus startup_stm32f401xc.s (author="MCD Application Team") → 32 include paths added (all for 6 times gcc, gxx, asm / debug & release)

  • Stm32F4-SW-cubehal-lib

    • Firmware Configuration = ⦿ Cube Hal ☐ Extract all firmware in separate folder ☑ Add low level drivers in this project ⦾ As sources in the application project ⦿ As static external libraries → adds a project "stm32f401c-disco_hal_lib" to the workspace (default workspace location) with the 3 directories (CMSIS, HAL_Driver, Utilities) (279 files, 37 directories, 65 MiB!) → I'd moved them to my git repo → when creating such project a second time, the .cproject seems to be incomplete (e.g. all of the includepaths, ...)
