Load MCU flash without reloading the external flash

[franck23]

Hi,

In debug mode, is there a way to reload the MCU flash but not the external flash connected to the QSPI?

It takes a while for CubeIDE to reprogram the external flash.

I do not modify the external flash data between debug sessions, so it would save me a lot of time if it was not erased then reprogrammed every time.

I could not find an option to avoid the external flash reload.

Thanks.

I'd probably post-link the section out of the ELF if the development software was deficient.

Problems seems to be the tools don't seem to be tested/evaluated in normal use cases..
