This workspace variant treats underlying projects as a kind of attached modules. It is designed for learning purpose to minimize any filesystem operations for new projects creation.
So to create a project you should do the following:
- create a project folder under src directory
- create a Makefile inside that folder
- create own project stm32f4xx_conf.h file and make necessary configurations there
- create & include your own or library sources within project's Makefile
Project Makefile has to define next variables:
- SRC - this is the space separated list of your source files
- NAME - this is the name used for compiled binaries
- (optional) PROJECT_SYSTEM_STM32F4XX - if equals true, than the default system_stm32f4xx.c is not included, but project should provide it's own variant through the SRC variable
After these variables are defined Makefile.common should be included via include ../../Makefile.common
The common makefile assumes that the arm gcc toolchain is installed and it's executables are in the system's PATH variable. The same as the st-link utility. Please refer for this post for details.
This file provides a way to control the library usage and is needed within every project folder. Please refer to that file for more information
Just include #include "stm32f4_discovery.h" in your source, configure project stm32f4xx_conf.h file and you're ready for discovery. Do not forget to include library source files you need in project Makefile.
Please refer to hello_world project for more details
Feel free to make any changes to this workspace corresponding your needs.
