The older ''Standard Peripheral Library'' came with a really wonderful .CHM file that cross-indexed all the documentation and source code.

Is that available for the new ST Cube libraries (and the HAL in particular)?

    Hi,

    The new STM32Cube FW packages come with *.chm UM for all HAL drivers, a UM is provided for each superset RNP.

    Just take a look to the

    http://www.st.com/st-web-ui/static/active/en/st_prod_software_internet/resource/technical/software/firmware/stm32cubef4.zip

    Drivers/STM32F4xx_HAL_Driver folder.

    Regards,

    Heisenberg.

    Thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for.

    However, the .chm files are not present in the STM32Cube downloads for F2, F3, L0, or L1 processor families (all of which are at v1.1 or earlier. The F0 Cube file is 1.2.0, and the F4 is 1.4.0)

    Yes, I confirm that.

    The next versions of the STM32Cube_FW packages will include the *.chm files.

    Just keep an eye out for the next updates.
