Boot to soft (STM32L151)

[JFELI.13]

Hi,
II have a BIG problem: at a certain time, I was able to jump from bootloader to a soft but I can't do it anymore. Perhaps I modified something in the soft (it was with STMCubeIde but, sorry, I hate STMCubeIde because every time you change your programming machine you lost configuration)  so now I'm trying to do this with MikroC so I just have to copy directory on a USB key.
The only sure thing is that processor had serial port broken so I changed it and I bought it from China (instead Farnell because the had no more when I needed). I hope this is not the problem has I ordered 100... 

I want my bootloader jump to flash. Boot pin has a zero level and can't been changed.
"Bootloader" (vectors to 0x0) start at 0x200 , "soft" vectors adress start at 0xC400 and soft at 0xC800)
The "soft" vectors adress is a copy from original soft vectors (0x0) when soft has been tested, so "soft" vectors have been moved from 0x0 to 0xC400 in an ".bin" file adding "bootloader" file and "soft file".  
When control "p_Led10" on, I can see flash vectors copy (0x0800C400 to 0x20000000) is OK.
But I will have a simple bootloader reset.
Any help apprecied (in french ? 😉)

What interrupt gets called? Look at VECTACTIVE or VECTPENDING fields in SCB registers.

> delay_ms(20);

Does this use systick? Probably want to disable that before the jump. I don't see you actually making the jump anywhere.

Perhaps go off of the code to jump to bootloader, but modify it to suit your target location and vector table scheme.

Thanks a lot for your answer.
I tried to make some change to see what happened.
It's seem it's always the same: when "JumpToProg()" has been called, I can see

And, this is also a try with STM32CubeIde with no sucess:

sorry, without comments:

I hope this is not a STM32 china provider problem. I just ordered to Farnell new IC to see...

Is there more to this sentence? It doesn't explain anything.

Your code is still quite different from the examples given.

[JFELI.13]

Oups ! it appears I forgot some words ...
I'm trying to be more clear.
1) I'm using a soft, writed with MikroC and quite big in size (GPS tracking, satellite sending...) 

2) this soft, at this time, has no radio updating capability and, now, I'm looking for adding this possibility
3) the purpose is to have 3 areas in flash: bootloader, program1, program2. There is another area with a "backup" copy done in external EEPROM, to add another security.
4) the bootloader will look actual functionnal soft (so program1 or program2), will control some security datas (example how many abnormal resets for a current program, updating state ...)
5) the bootloader has to be "small" in size so the two program areas can be higher. bootloader org is 0x08000400, PROG1_AD is 0x0800C800, PROG2_AD is 0x08036400
6) PROGx adress is the "org" adress. Before this adress, at exactly adress-0x400, I have vectors for them. The "bin" file used for this is done with Visual Studio who mix bootloader "bin" file, move program "bin" vectors area to program adress-0x400 and add, of course, program file.

So , actually I 'm just trying to jump from bootloader to a program.  That's why it's not important I did it whith MikoC or StmCube32Ide (except, has I mentionned it, STMCube is not usefull at all for working on different PCs).

Data in SRAM usually survives software reset. But SYSCFG? What do you think happens to your "boot mode" after reset?

[JFELI.13]

You're probably wright and this explain classic boot. But how can I do ?
