STM32CubeMX does NOT work in quiet mode

Follow-on from CubeMX code generation from command line.


I am posting again in hopes of getting meaningful answer.

I tried creating a simple script text file to automate code generation for my project. The script file has all of three lines:

config load DCC_tester.ioc
generate code .
exit

The feedback I got on why it did not work was my .ico file was corrupted. To prove this was not the case I used a very simple project file using one of your example projects from one of your released STM32H5 bundles.

The only modification I made was changing the name and making it a cmake project.

I am running on Windows 11 with CubeMX installed using all defaults.

I can click on the .ioc file from Windows Explorer and the MX IDE opens just fine. I can click the "GENERATE CODE" button and that also works just fine. All the files are generated as expected.

I try launching using the -q using ether a PowerShell script or a command line batch file and neither completes although it looks like its trying.  Seems to stall leaving a MXTmpFiles folder. cmake and other files like startup and linker file are not generated.

I have attached the .ioc  the script  text file as well as PowerShell and batch file ... none work as expected.

Hello @dvescovi 

In your script , just do the following modification :

config load <filename>
generate code <path>
exit_mx

Example

config load "C:\Users\gsourigh\OneDrive - STMicroelectronics\Desktop\Thread\testcodegen\DCC_tester.ioc"
generate code "C:\Users\gsourigh\OneDrive - STMicroelectronics\Desktop\Thread\testcodegen"
exit_mx

 

Then launch the following command after cd the installation path of MX6.16.0 

jre\bin\java -jar .\STM32CubeMX.exe -q "script path"

example 

jre\bin\java -jar .\STM32CubeMX.exe -q "C:\Users\gsourigh\OneDrive - STMicroelectronics\Desktop\Thread\testcodegen\generatecode.txt"

As you can see , the code will be generated successfully.
