Set USB Max Power for CDC Device Using STM32CubeMX?

I am using an STM32L4 device.  I am making a USB device that uses CDC and have battery charge detection enabled.  I need to request 500mA from the USB port if a standard downstream port is detected.  It appears that the max power is hard-coded for 100mA in 'Middlewares/ST/STM32_USB_Device_Library/Class/CDC/Src/usbd_cdc.c' and that this will be overwritten by STM32CubeMX every time the project is regenerated if I modify this file.

Is there an expected way that this value should be changed for CubeMX projects?  There does not appear to be any public interface into this device structure.

Hello Rob,

As you noticed the USB descriptors are currently hard coded in the usbd_cdc.c file. We need an update of the USB middleware library to have these descriptors configurable via STM32CubeMX.

Hi @riggs.rob, you can access the structures and set it in run time. You may place your code inside usbd_conf.c file, maybe this helps to you.

void HAL_PCD_MspInit(PCD_HandleTypeDef* pcdHandle)

{  if(pcdHandle->Instance==USB)  {  /* USER CODE BEGIN USB_MspInit 0 */    uint16_t length;

    *(USBD_CDC.GetFSConfigDescriptor(&length) + 😎 = (500 / 2);

  /* USER CODE END USB_MspInit 0 */

.
