Hi

We use the SWD method. We have ST-Link V2 http://www.st.com/web/en/catalog/tools/FM146/CL1984/SC724/SS1677/PF251168 http://uk.farnell.com/stmicroelectronics/st-link-v2/icd-programmer-for-stm8-stm32/dp/1892523 The programs we use is St-Lin Util (just handles the .hex) http://www.st.com/web/en/catalog/tools/PF258168 We also use an IDE debugger but I would not recommend the one we use (Atollic) - it is terrible. Go for IAR or Keil or GreenHills In addition, my job was to develop our own custom bootloader which runs over USB CDC
