Programatically reading the state of a GPIO Output Pin.

Hi, I want to use the state of a GPIO Pin (It is driving a chip select on an SPI device) to determine that the SPI transfer has completed. I do know about the callback on the CMSIS code, but I'd prefer not to use that.

So, can I read the state of the actual H/W Pin when I have that pin set to Output mode ?.

Thanks,

Andy

As the fine manual states (this one is from RM0008 for STM32F1xx, but I doubt others will be different - check yours):

When the I/O Port is programmed as Output:

[...]

The data present on the I/O pin is sampled into the Input Data Register every APB2

clock cycle

This has nothing to do with CMSIS.
