Jumping to random file after pressing Run button

[GeneralTao]

Hello. When I press to Run (Run main.c) button, STM32CubeIDE opens random file, possibly, from current repository, for example: startup_stm32l452xx.s, core_cm4.h etc...

Code is loading successful, but this side effect bothers me.

I would like to disable this function. How can I do it?

If you need more information about this behavior please, ask.

Thank you for reading.

Thanks

"During this transition period, STM32CubeIDE will be maintained. Currently, STM32CubeIDE is the best debugger for STM32 microcontrollers and can be used side-by-side with VS Code."

Luckily, I have no issues with STM32CubeIDE so I agree with "STM32CubeIDE is the best debugger for STM32 microcontrollers".

Hahaha, this msg killed me

Keil also abandoned uVision and moves to VS Code. Only Time will show if it is just a fashion and will be better than CubeIDE.

I hope to finish my curernt project with CubeIDE, 2-3 years. It seems very robust.

"I am not sure you can use 'we' any longer. I wonder if anyone else experiences what you do."

As I told you, me, my colleagues and many others, following this post: This is what we experience, just like in the video. You don't need more proof of this.

Please try to contribute to a clear error definition, find a cause, a solution or a workaround. Otherwise, please just spectate.

"You don't need more proof of this."

No I dont, because I asked for it, so there is sth tangible at last.

Write whatever you want @ferro , but it simply happens! .. this thread is not fake!. I am facing this problem since las 5 years using all versions IDE and reinstalling  CUBE in different Computers and windows versions.

Haha, where do i say it does not. Oh dear,I know 5y is a long time but Calm down guys, we will get there.

So there is 3 of you so far. We know why startup.s so that is semi-sorted, not 'a random file'. Now focus on files after end of debug session. Prolly sth similar.

Congratulations on your 5th birthday, dear bug.

May you be solved one day.....

That's right; it is not a random file. It is the file whose code was executing when the program starts or when you hit a breakpoint, etc.

I've just been debugging all day for a week and every time I do a debug build (F11) I get the startup.s file opening. This is riduculous and cannot be disabled, yet should be easy to fix.

There used to be an option for an automatic halt on main() but it has been removed, and anyway it doesn't stop there now.

ST have abandoned Cube IDE development anyway, according to a recent press release.

From my experience: new software new bugs...
