How to use OpenBootLoader?

[TwelveSquared]

STM32CubeG4 v1.3.0 contains STM32 OpenBootLoader 2.0. How is this used/accessed? I cannot find it anywhere in STM32CubeMX.

I have STM32CubeMX v6.0.1 and STM32Cube MCU package for STM32G4 series v1.3.0.

@Pavel A.​  thanks for your reply, but that is not the bootloader I'm talking about. I am talking about the OpenBootLoader written by ST and supplied with STM32CubeG4.

Hi @TwelveSquared​ ,

OpenBootLoader example was introduced in STM32CubeG4 package. It  exploits OpenBootloader Middleware to demonstrate how to develop an IAP application and how to use it.

More details on how to use this application are provided in the readme.txt file (Ex: STM32Cube_FW_G4\Projects\STM32G474E-EVAL\Applications\OpenBootloader).

It remains relevant to forward your request to support OpenBootLoader as a new Middleware component in STM32CubeMX. We will keep you informed if there is any update on this regard.

Thank you. Yes, please keep me informed

Hi @TwelveSquared​ ,

I got the information that currently there is no plan to integrate OpenBootLoader in STM32CubeMX.

Your proposal was the trigger for such request.

Hi @TwelveSquared​ ,

I would like to keep you informed that the development team reviewed your request and they confirm that OpenBootLoader will not be integrated as a Middleware component for STM32CubeMX.

That is sad but thanks for updating me
