CubeMx 4.17 does not handle -q or -s switch

Hi,

I recently discovered in UM1718 that CubeMX can work with a command line. That's a cool feature for continuous integration. But it seems that the command line switch are not handled. If I use -s or -q followed by a script name, I get something like this: systemId: file:/D:/Dev/Pic/Msa/devices/diamond%20ST/scripts/cubeMxGenerate.txt; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Content is not allowed in prolog. command:

java -jar ''C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeMX\STM32CubeMX.exe'' –q scripts\cubeMxGenerate.txt

error:

systemId: file:/D:/Dev/...T/scripts/cubeMxGenerate.txt; lineNumber: 1; columnNumber: 1; Content is not allowed in prolog.

if instead I call:

java -jar ''C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeMX\STM32CubeMX.exe'' –q conf.ioc

It works but does not run a script.... Does the syntax has changed or is it a bug? Thanks Julien #cubemx-script

Dear User,

I have tested and checked the command line, but I'm not able to reproduce this issue with STM32CubeMx v4.18.0 Try using short path and name for <script filename>, like: java -jar ''C:\Program Files\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeMX\STM32CubeMX.exe'' -q C:\cube.txt Please, keep us informed about your progress. Best Regards STM32.forum

Hum, where is 4.18?

''check for update'' returns nothing and when I download 4.18 from the website, the installer contains a setup labeled  4.17...

Dear JulienD,

The new release 4.18.0 is available on the web via this

http://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/products/development-tools/software-development-tools/stm32-software-development-tools/stm32-configurators-and-code-generators/stm32cubemx.html

, but not yet visible on the CubeMx tool, it takes some time. This is due to the synchronization issue between CubeMx tool and the update in the web. Your issue is reported internally to our CubeMx team for more investigation. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding. Best Regards STM32.forum

If I download the file with the link you gave me. I get a zip file which contains a setup labeled 4.16.1....

If I try with this one : http://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stm32cubemx.html I get a zip file which contains a setup labeled 4.17... Another try?   :D

Dear Imen

I've just downloaded the 4.18 version but I still have the same messy behaviour.

I tried with windows 7 pro SP1 and 8.1.

Best regards

Julien

All right, I found what happened. The '-' sign was copied from the windows console and looked like a '-' but

was not a '-' char. That's why the switch was not interpreted.
