TouchGFX generated STM32H7B3I EVAL project, build with Keil failed

[sheng yang]

I use stm32 touch gfx tool ``TouchGFX 4.25.0 Designer`` generate a simple demo based on STM32H7B3I_EVAL board.

but when I build this project on MDK542a,  I get failed as below

I add the project zip file to attach.

Hello @sheng yang ,

It seems you have insufficient memory. For that check memory settings and ensure that the memory regions are properly defined and have enough space.

You need to modify your Keil MDK scatter file to allocate the framebuffer, heap, and large objects to external SDRAM.

[GaetanGodart]

Hello @sheng yang ,

I have checked the project you shared as a zip file.
You say that you try to build using MDK542a.

To build and flash using Keil, in STM32CubeMX => Project manager => Toolchain, you have to change the toolchain and IDE:

Then you have to generate code using STM32CubeMX with set MDK-ARM.
Then you have to go back to TouchGFX Designer and generate code there aswell.
Then you can go to your Keil IDE and build and flash.
If you struggle to flash, you can flash the bin using STM32CubeProgrammer.

the scatter file (generated by TouchGFX 4.25.0 Designer) as:

```

```

 I thought I use the generated project, it should be compilied success by default. :smile:

[sheng yang]

after I regenerate the mdk-arm project, I get new errors as below:

[GaetanGodart]

Hello @sheng yang ,

It looks like your linker is not aware of the TouchGFX framework (library).
Can you check that you have the TouchGFX framework in your project's libraries?

Can you tell me the steps you did to create your project?

1. I use touchgfx generate a demo pro with stm32h7b3i evaluation board

2. I launch the keil project under MyApplication\MDK-ARM\STM32H7B3I_EVAL.uvprojx it failed with no space region

3. I renegerate the keil project with  MyApplication\STM32H7B3I_EVAL.ioc and recompiled the project with v5.06 compiler rather v6 default in keil v5.42, it failed as undefined symbol as preview post

Besides I regenerate the project with stm32 cube IDE, it can compiled success as

[GaetanGodart]

Hello @sheng yang ,

When you create a project using TouchGFX Designer, by default it is set to work with GCC (and STM32CubeIDE), which means that there are generated files for that compiler.
When you select Keil Toolchain and re-generate code from STM32CubeMX, some of those files are rewritten to work with Keil, but not all of them.
Some of the files are generated by TouchGFX Generator.
So after re-generating code from STM32CubeMX, you also have to open your TouchGFX project in Designer and clikc on the "Generate code" button.
Then you can work with the Keil toolchain.

I have a board with stm32H7B0ZBT6, and I want to use touchgfx with my board. Now I use touchgfx designer generate a STM32H7B3I_EVAL demo, I try to just use stm32cubemx open STM32H7B3I_EVAL.ioc and change the chip and releate settings then regenerate the files. But after I rechange the chip , I found stm32cube mx recreate a new project.

I wonder is there any way that I can run touchgfx simple demo on my stm32h7bzbt6 board ?

Besides I append a stm32cubeide project of myboard, I have an  another question how could I regenerate the touchgfx code to this project ?

[GaetanGodart]

Hello @sheng yang ,

You say that you have a board with stm32H7B0ZBT6, so is it a custom board or is it a Nucleo board or something else?

Since you want to use another chip and board (and probably memory and display), you can't just copy paste the hardware configuration.

What you could do it to do the correct hardware and middleware configuration yourself and then going into TouchGFX Designer, click on Edit => Import GUI and select the .touchgfx file of the STM32H7B3I_EVAL demo to import only the GUI into your new project, but your new project has to be correctly configured for that.

To configure a project yourself, have a look at these links:
