Exclude from compiling one or more source file "for ever"

[zioMorgan]

Hi all, I've a question.

I created a new project and there I linked externally some user made modules with the command Import (Right click kn project name, then choose import, add the wanted modules and linked them into the project).

I try to compile and everything was ok.

Now my question: I need to exclude some files from compiling process, both in debug and release mode. I was able to exclude them by the command "Resource Configuration" but when I delete and import again the modules, and link them again to the project, I see that the compiling filters has been restored to default values meanwhile I need to keep the filters on everytime.

There is a way to achieve this?

Hello @zioMorgan 

First let me thank you for posting.

Try to follow  these steps  , you can manage file exclusions more effectively in STM32CubeIDE:

• Create a Custom Build Configuration:
  • Set up a specific build configuration that excludes certain files. This way, you can switch between configurations without having to re-exclude files each time.
  • Check this post 
• Use Project Properties:
  • Go to Project Properties > C/C++ General > Paths and Symbols > Source Location.
  • Here, you can manage file filters more effectively and ensure that your excluded files are noted for future reference
