How do I rename (proper way) an STM32 project?

DMårt · ‎2020-08-10

If I press F2 I can rename the name of the project, but the project folder still have the same name. If I change the name of the folder, then I get errors.

Why?

Is there a proper way to rename a project?

I'm using STM32CubeIDE 1.3.0.

Don't know if that's the proper way, but if you rename (F2) in STM32cubeIDE first, delete the project form workspace (but not from file system ;-), rename the folder and open the project in the renamed folder again, it will be re-added to the workspace and you have completed the task, i.e. no more errors. Existing Debug/Run configurations must be renamed separtely.
