STM32CubeIDE custom post-build called before hex/bin created

troky · ‎2019-05-16

I have post-build step that alters final .hex file (put some metadata inside) but script is called before .hex file s created.

Yes, i have the same problem too. This bug prevents me using the CubeIDE

This also happened in my case. So, my workaround is to run a script (batch file in my case) in post-build to generate hex from elf by myself (by using objcopy.exe provided by STM32CubeIDE) and then deal with this hex (generating checksum in my case). Please refer to my checksum.bat in the following link:

Dear ST developers,

Please fix this issue, because it is really annoying.

Thanks in advance!

Same issue here. What we really need is a post post build step I guess...

What version of STM32CubeIDE are you using?

This issue is fixed in later versions. You can download the latest version of CubeIDE here.

Let me know if you're still facing any problems in the newer release!

OK thanks. So far we've been horribly afraid of updating, but this is a good reason to finally give it a try.
