invoke STM32Cube Programmer CLI using Windows PowerShell

[BJian]

Hi there,

I tried to invoke STM32Cube Programmer CLI using Windows PowerShell, the program download is successful, but there's many "device not open" warning:

PS C:\Program Files (x86)\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeProgrammer\bin> stm32_programmer_cli.exe -c port=swd -d

My command is:

stm32_programmer_cli.exe -c port=swd -d E:\STM32F302R8-Nucleo.elf

However, I don't see those warning by using STM32Cube Programmer GUI or invoke STM32Cube Programmer CLI from TrueStudio. So what's wrong with this PowerShell approach?

Thank you, have a nice day!

I got the same "device not open" messages with STM32CubeProgrammer Version 1.3.0.

Seemed to be a thing with parsing the elf files. But the data got correct to the MCU as far as I could see.

After installing Version 2.0.0 of STM32CubeProgrammer, the problem is gone.
