A question about STM32CubeIDE...

[HTajb.1]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am going to install STM32CUBEIDE_1.3.0_5720(Windows based) on my system .In the initial phase of installing ,I was asked to choose or select :

SEGER J-Link drivers

ST-LINK drivers

ST-LINK servers

 For your further info, it should be mentioned that: I installed before: "STM32 ST-Link Utility" (last version from ST website) on my computer to use ST-Link V2 programmer .

Do I really need to choose and select: SEGER J-Link drivers,ST-LINK drivers,ST-LINK servers

on my system?Were they installed by "STM32 ST-Link Utility previously" on my system or NOT?If I install them,will I face any conflict or problem with my computer?

 I really appreciate your attention.

Hi,

Which package you choose to install is up to you and which use cases you expect to work when it comes to debug/flash operation inside CubeIDE.

If you expect debug to work, you should however install all of them. OK, you can skip SEGGER if you know that you will not use a SEGGER probe nor the ST-LINK on-board SEGGER firmware. Then this package is ~110MByte. So maybe not an issue to install...

To my knowledge, there has not been any reports of conflicts between the drivers bundled with CubeProg / St-LINK Utility / CubeIDE. So I would simply rely on the CubeIDE bundled stuff which I assume may be of later version.
