How to setup STM32 Project in eclipse

TurnToJPG -->

###Preparation ####STM Standard Peripheral Lib Download Link for STSW-STM32054STM32F10x standard peripheral library :
http://www.st.com/web/catalog/tools/FM147/CL1794/SC961/SS1743/PF257890
Unsip the downloaded library and you will get several folders, the Libraries folder is the pure libs. ####Cross-Compiler for STM32 Download the cross-compiler from CodeSourcery ARM EABI toolchain - Mentor Graphics:
https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lite/arm/portal/subscription?@template=lite
You have to choose EABI version. Download and install it, you will get “arm-none-eabi-” prefixed cross-compiler.
####Eclipse plugins Help-> Install New Software, Add the URL for gnuarm:
http://gnuarmeclipse.sourceforge.net/updates
Then Install CDT GNU Cross Development Tools , after install the plugin, you will asked to reboot, just reboot. Now your preparation is OK.

###Create a new project In Eclipse, Click File->New->C project, choose “ARM Cross Target Applcation (End of life)", choose “Empty Project” “ARM Linux GCC(Sourcery Lite Bare), give the Project name and click Next Button, then click Finish. you will see the newly created project in the Project Explorer.

Copy the Library files into your own project, take “stmExample” project for example:

	[Trusty@DashArch STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Lib_V3.5.0]$ pwd
	/media/y/embedded/stm32/dev/lib/STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Lib_V3.5.0
	[Trusty@DashArch STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Lib_V3.5.0]$ cp -r  Libraries/ ~/workspace/stmExample/	 

Your project should seem like this:

Now you have to prepare your startup file, notice you have to use “S” suffixed file name, and you have to remove the remaining directory except the .S file:

	[Trusty@DashArch startup]$ pwd
	/home/Trusty/workspace/stmExample/Libraries/CMSIS/CM3/DeviceSupport/ST/STM32F10x/startup
	[Trusty@DashArch startup]$ ls
	arm  gcc_ride7  iar  TrueSTUDIO
	[Trusty@DashArch startup]$ cp TrueSTUDIO/startup_stm32f10x_hd.s ./startup_stm32f10x_hd.S
	[Trusty@DashArch startup]$ ls
	arm  gcc_ride7  iar  startup_stm32f10x_hd.S  TrueSTUDIO
	[Trusty@DashArch startup]$ rm -rf TrueSTUDIO/ iar/ gcc_ride7/ arm/
	[Trusty@DashArch startup]$ ls
	startup_stm32f10x_hd.S

Create a directory named src to contains your own project files.

	[Trusty@DashArch stmExample]$ mkdir src
	[Trusty@DashArch stmExample]$ pwd
	/home/Trusty/workspace/stmExample
	[Trusty@DashArch stmExample]$ ls
	Libraries  src

Copy the project files into “src” directory:

	[Trusty@DashArch STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Template]$ ls
	EWARM  HiTOP  main.c  MDK-ARM  Release_Notes.html  RIDE  stm32f10x_conf.h  stm32f10x_it.c  stm32f10x_it.h  system_stm32f10x.c  TrueSTUDIO
	[Trusty@DashArch STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Template]$ cp stm32f10x_* ~/workspace/stmExample/src/
	[Trusty@DashArch STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Template]$ pwd
	/media/y/embedded/stm32/dev/lib/STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Lib_V3.5.0/Project/STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Template
Copy the link script to root directory of your project:
	[Trusty@DashArch STM32100B-EVAL]$ pwd
	/media/y/embedded/stm32/dev/lib/STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Lib_V3.5.0/Project/STM32F10x_StdPeriph_Template/TrueSTUDIO/STM32100B-EVAL
	[Trusty@DashArch STM32100B-EVAL]$ cp stm32_flash.ld  ~/workspace/stmExample/

You have to modify the link script according to your own flash layout and memory layout, My CPU is STM32F103VC, which has 48K RAM and 256K Flash, so the configuration is listed as:

/*

!!! This file is automatically generated by RIDE !!!
Do not modify it, as it will be erased at every link.

Now create a sample main.c under the src directory and input your source code.

###Configure the project Right click your project, select Properties, C/C++ Build -> Settings, ARM Linux GCC Assembler(Sourcery Lite Bare)/Preprocessor, add a Defined symbols(-D), also you have to add this into ARM Linux GCC Compiler(Sourcery Lite Bare):

	STM32F10X_HD
	USE_STDPERIPH_DRIVER

In ARM Linux GCC C Compiler(Sourcery Lite Bare)-> Directories, add Include paths(-i) add following:

Specify the link script:
ARM Linux GCC CLinker(Sourcery Lite Bare) -> General, Script file(-T) /home/Trusty/workspace/stm32archlinux/stm32_flash.ld

###Build and Debug Right click the project and click “Build project”, then you got your project compiling and linking, finally you got your Binary named stmExample.elf.
Now we can use OpenOCD for writing the image into the flash and debugging it.

Run->Debug Configuration, you will see Zylin Embedded debug(Native) is available, right click and choose “Create new”, create a new debug item.
Choose the Main:

Choose the Debugger:

Choose Commands:

The configuration file is :

	target remote localhost:3333
	monitor reset
	monitor halt
	monitor flash protect 0 0 11 off
	monitor flash write_image erase /home/Trusty/workspace/stm32archlinux/Debug/stm32archlinux.hex 0 ihex
	disconnect
	target remote localhost:3333
	monitor reset
	monitor halt

Open your own openocd, and then using eclipse to connect the gdb. Remember “toggle breakpoint” and you will get a hardware breakpoint. Enjoy the debugging.
