Query on Inter-operability of Discovery and Nucleo Eval-boards

Hi All.

I am planning to get a ''Hello World'' program running on a STM32 eval-board, using linux-tool-chain. As part of preparations, the only proper ''linux-link'' I have received till now is http://www.hertaville.com/stm32f0discovery-part-1-linux.html. In this, I have got hold of the Peripheral-Discovery-Package as present at http://www.st.com/en/embedded-software/stsw-stm32049.html. However, at this point of time, I have a STM32F072-Nucleo board. So, my question is, can the Peripheral-Discovery-Package be used (ideally without any changes) to build the first-steps for the STM32F072-Nucleo board? If the answer is no, I will probably get back to you guys after some more research :) Hoping for some help from the experts !! Thanks and Regards, Ajay

The SPL remains the same, what tends to differ is the pins, peripherals and clock sources, etc. The porting effort from one board to the next is not unduly burdensome.

If you don't insist on Open-Source tools, you can give CrossWorks (for ARM) a try. It comes in a Linux version, which I'm using for years now (Mint, 32-bit).
