Configuration

If you build a project and face warnings like these:

  • in function `_close_r’:

(.text._close_r+0xc): warning: _close is not implemented and will always fail

  • in function `_lseek_r’:

(.text._lseek_r+0x10): warning: _lseek is not implemented and will always fail

  • in function `_read_r’:

(.text._read_r+0x10): warning: _read is not implemented and will always fail

in function `_write_r’:

(.text._write_r+0x10): warning: _write is not implemented and will always fail

_close_r’ `_lseek_r’ `_read_r’ `_write_r’

Solution

libraries

  • Check “Do not use standard start files”

  • Check “Do not use default libraries”

  • Check “No startup or default libraries”

  • options -> -nostartfiles -nodefaultlibs -nostdlib

Zoom in, zoom out

Zoom in: Ctrl + Use the + on the = key, not the keypad +!

Zoom out: Ctrl -, do no use keypad

linker: use your own .ld file

In Linker Script, you can use the Browse button:

.ld file

location of STM32CubeIDE toolchain

The toolchain is located in the STM32CubeIDE installation folder under the ‘plugins’ directory.

Make a symlink in your local directory

ln -s /very/long/path ~/foo

You can now do cd foo

It will take you to /very/long/path.

$ ls -l tools total 4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 fhc fhc 146 Nov 28 21:55 bin -> /home/fhc/st/stm32cubeide_1.17.0/plugins/com.st.stm32cube.ide.mcu.externaltools.gnu-tools-for-stm32.12.3.rel1.linux64_1.1.0.202410170702/tools/bin

Use cd -P foo to display /very/long/path

echo $PATH /home/fhc/.local/bin: /usr/local/sbin: /usr/local/bin: /usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games: /usr/local/games: /snap/bin: /home/fhc/TOOLCHAIN/bin: /home/fhc/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin

Install STM32CubeMonitor

In case you have the following error:

$ sudo apt install stm32cubemonitor_1.9.0_amd64.deb
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done

E: The package stm32cubemonitor needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.

do the following:

change status
 $ sudo mv /var/lib/dpkg/status ~/status.bak
 $ sudo cp /var/backups/dpkg.status.0 /var/lib/dpkg/status
 $ sudo apt-get update

Configure STM32CubeMonitor

Double click on the myProbe_Out node:

CubeMonitor

Click on the + button (Add New Probe Config Node):
