Importing example (Heart rate BLE / STM32CubeWB Firmware Package V1.18.0) with VSCode

[Remyhx]

Hi,

I tried to import the BLE Heart rate example from the Firmware Package (1.18.0), direct importing by the STM extension in VSCode (Cube IDE directory inside the project) seems to be not possible. If I choose 'Create a new appl. project' in the extension, open Ble_HeartRate.ioc in the project folder and change the project output to STM CubeIDE and generate the files, it is not compilable. 

Probably importing in Eclipse is more successful, but is there maybe a way to do it in VSCode?

 

Greetings,

Are you moving the project somewhere else? I am able to import the projects and build with the VS code extension

C:\Users\%YOU%\STM32Cube\Repository\STM32Cube_FW_WB_V1.18.0\Projects\P-NUCLEO-WB55.Nucleo\Applications\BLE\BLE_HeartRate\STM32CubeIDE

 

Step 1: Open Vs Code into the "STM32CubeIDE" version of the project

Step 2: Try to "Import a local project" and select the project.ioc

Step 3: Try to build ( CTRL Shift B )

If that fails, make sure you have CMAKE extension installed 

Step 4: Open the command palette (CTRL  SHIFT P) and Run CMake: Configure

Step 5: Try to build again from the command palette ( CTRL SHIFT P ) and run CMake: Build

Hi Eddie-Amaya,

Firstly thank you very much for the quick reply!

I have the cmake extension installed. I can open up the folder STMCUBEIDE within the BLE/heartrate folders. But when I try to import a local project I get the following error message: Project importing failed. ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/remyhurx/Documents/STM/Library/STM_Firmware/STM32CubeWB/Projects/P-NUCLEO-WB55.Nucleo/Applications/BLE/BLE_HeartRate/.cproject' 

I see the .cproject in the STMCUBEIDE folder, the IOC file is located one up in /Users/remyhurx/Documents/STM/Library/STM_Firmware/STM32CubeWB/Projects/P-NUCLEO-WB55.Nucleo/Applications/BLE/BLE_HeartRate/

The .cproject is in /Users/remyhurx/Documents/STM/Library/STM_Firmware/STM32CubeWB/Projects/P-NUCLEO-WB55.Nucleo/Applications/BLE/BLE_HeartRate/BLE_HeartRate/STMCUBEIDE

Yes, I see the core project file in the "Root" directory of the BLE Heartrate project but to build the STM32CubeIDE specific project you want vs code to be in the STM32CubeIDE directory. 

The project Core files are in the Root so you would have to open another Vs code instance at the root directory but build from the STM32CubeIDE directory.

Hi, one step back: if I try to import a project it will fail, for both folders (root and STM32CubeIDE). I can open the ioc file in cubemx, generate the files (cubeide, generate under root). Then I can import the project, but it will not build. Because of an error in the cmake files (included a readme.txt) and it can't find stm32wbxx_nucleo.h

Did you try the CMAKE commands i mentioned to have the extension reconfigure the cmake files?

[Remyhx]

If I try exactly as you say:

Step 1: Open Vs Code into the "STM32CubeIDE" version of the project

Open folder, succes.

Step 2: Try to "Import a local project" and select the project.ioc

Fails at this point. After opening up the folder stm32cubeide in the ble heart test example folder, I go to the stm32 extension. Choose import a local project and go one folder up to select ble_heartrate.ioc

The returning error: Project importing failed. ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/Users/remyhurx/Documents/STM/Library/STM_Firmware/STM32CubeWB/Projects/P-NUCLEO-WB55.Nucleo/Applications/BLE/BLE_HeartRate/.project'

This file is in the already opened folder, but it doesn’t read. So it fails before I can do step 3 etc. 

I tried to add the higher folder (with the.ioc) to the workspace, with the same result. So I didn’t had the chance yet to do step 3 or 4. 

Step 3: Try to build ( CTRL Shift B )

If that fails, make sure you have CMAKE extension installed 

Step 4: Open the command palette (CTRL  SHIFT P) and Run CMake: Configure

Step 5: Try to build again from the command palette ( CTRL SHIFT P ) and run CMake: Build
