STM32MP13 empty STM32Cube project "hello world"

[ravo]

Hello

Can I use Windows and STM32CubeIDE to develop application using STM32MP135FAF7 (STM32MP135F-DK discovery kit).

I tried to create empty project based on this discovery kit but it ended with message

"This project requires OpenSTLinux version 'openstlinux-6.1.-yocto-mickledore-mp1-v23.06.21', setup it now ?"

and finally error message "This operation is only supported on Linux!"

I would like to program "bare" A7 chip using STM32IDE using STLink, is it really possible ?

Thanks in advance... and Best Regards

Radim

Hello @ravo ,
Can you explain the process you followed to create your project ?
Are you sure you are using the right CubeIDE / CubeMX version mentioned in the wiki ? Please take care to follow this article and come back to me if you still face any trouble : https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/STM32CubeMP13_Package_-_Getting_started

Kind regards,
Erwan.

Dear @Erwan SZYMANSKI,

thanks for response. I fellow up already steps from AN5360 (an5360-getting-started-with-projects-based-on-the-stm32mp1-series-in-stm32cubeide-stmicroelectronics.pdf)

STM32 New Project

Board Selector - STM32MP135F-DK

I forgot to swap to bareMetal. I must have been blind

In meanwhile I also tried another approach to generate IOC with CubeMX and import to CubeIDE it will create working project... I was still wondering where I made a mistake in CubeIDE.

So many thanks for these another wiki pages.

So project creation works fine now. No I can compile it, but how to program/ debug project ?

When I tried to run/debug it will halt:

I have upgraded STLink on discovery board and it is recognised in Windows devices. But don't know where could be another problem.

@ravo ,
Some attention point that could help your case :
1) Did you double check that connectivity was good (cf the article) and the boot pins are set to "engineering mode" ? 
2) Did you double check your Debug Configuration regarding following article ? https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/STM32CubeMP13_Package_-_Getting_started#Download_and_run_an_example_from_SYSRAM

Kind regards,
Erwan.

Dear @Erwan SZYMANSKI ,

Thanks for your support.

Regarding point 1:

What do you mean with "Did you double check that connectivity was good (cf the article)" ?

Engineering mode verified.

Thanks for correction the engineering mode. I read um2993-discovery-kit-with-1-ghz-stm32mp135fa-mpu-stmicroelectronics.pdf (https://www.st.com/resource/en/user_manual/um2993-discovery-kit-with-1-ghz-stm32mp135fa-mpu-stmicroelectronics.pdf) and in chapter 7.7.1 there is "reserved" instead "engineering mode". So prior to your info I set-up 000 to USB boot for programming... So this could be corrected.

Regarding point 2: 

I had already double checked Debug Configuration and it is same as described in mentioned article in chapter 6.1.1 As bare metal↑ (https://wiki.st.com/stm32mpu/wiki/STM32CubeMP13_Package_-_Getting_started#As_bare_metal)

But the problem is still here, same error log, and I don't know where could be another problem.

Dear @Erwan SZYMANSKI 

Update:

After restarting PC the gdb server now seems start working. I am now able to start debugger and run code...
