STM32Cube makefile project debugging in Atollic

I have generated a makefile project with cubemx. Furthermore, I was able to import that project in to Atollic (New->Makefile Project with Exisiting Code).

I am able to successfully compile the project, however I am unable to debug i.e. I would like to use breakpoints, look at register values, etc.

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Thank you for your response. 

I was able to follow the video, however this specific video did not go through the option of debugging a makefile project. I would like to use a makefile project along with ST-LINK to debug my code? Does this option exist with TrueSTUDIO?

Thanks.

Hi

ravi.kevat

,

Let me share what I did:

With CubeMx tool

- Creation of the Makefile project for L476RG

With TrueSTUDIO

- File, New C Project, Empty project with Atollic ARM Tools, Next and Finish

- File, New Folder, link to alternate location (where project from CubeMx is), Finish

- Creation in Build Targets (build, and clean), as following for

make --print-directory -C ../../NUCLEO-L476RG -f Makefile GCC_PATH=&39c:/gcc-arm/bin/&39

(Fixed relative path from workspace to actual source code location)

- Built/cleaned with these targets

- Created Debug Setting, Embedded C/C++ Application, Target Settings with the Device (NUCLEO-L476RG in my case) with Debug probe set as ST-LINK probe with SWD

I could start a debug session.

Note rebuild when relaunch has to fixed.

Hoping that gives idea to follow.

Regards.
