STM32CubeF versus peripheral libs

Hello,

STM32FCube changes the API to many calls, e.g. SD_Init(void) to HAL_SD_Init(SD_HandleTypeDef *hsd, HAL_SD_CardInfoTypedef *SDCardInfo), if I understand things right. This need substantial effort to port old code to the new API. Will the peripheral libs still see maintances updates or do we have to migrate?

No, they are discontinued in favour of the ''Cube''.

Either that, or you drop the ''library'' thing altogether and work directly at the registers level.

Unless the code gets bit-rot, or you can't fix the odd bug, migration would seem to present more issues with testing and regression than it solves.

Hi, I am in this boat as well.  I am looking for the older libs especially for

stm32f4xx_fmc

and not any of the FSMC items, because the Cube doesn't seem to have everything defined in regards to the NAND, or I am missing the boat!....hmmmm

Can someone point me to the place for the NON-Cube files?

Thanks

Not particularly up to date

I do have my own archives, including the older DSP and STM32F4-DISCO releases.
