Need help with CubeProgrammer CLI syntax

Hello,

STM32L4+, CubeProgrammer 2.21, ST-Link V2, Windows 10

I need to do:

* Full flash erase

* Write Application image (.hex or .bin)

* Write Bootloader image (.hex or .bin)

* Set RDP level 1

* Start the application at the Bootloader start address.

-

I am successfully doing this with the CubeProgrammer GUI, but I fail to get it to work with CLI.

The "-e all" command works and says "Mass erase successfully achieved":

C:\"Program Files"\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeProgrammer\bin\STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=SWD ap=0 -e all

-

However, I have tried numerous variants of the following command (and its separate parts alone) without success:

C:\"Program Files"\STMicroelectronics\STM32Cube\STM32CubeProgrammer\bin\STM32_Programmer_CLI.exe -c port=SWD freq=3900 ap=0 -e all -w C:\SVN\Path\More_path\hex\Application.elf -w C:\SVN\Path\More_path\hex\Bootloader.hex -ob rdp=0xBB -s 0x08000000

I have also tried with .bin files and their respective start addresses.

The only response I get is the header:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
STM32CubeProgrammer v2.21.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------

-

The command "-c port=SWD freq=3900 ap=0 -s 0x08000000" gives a complete (failure) response:

-------------------------------------------------------------------
STM32CubeProgrammer v2.21.0

I have tried to find a tutorial or a list of CLI command examples but um2237 is a wee bit brief and I haven't found much on the internet.

Grateful for your input.

Unfortunately, the RESET switch approach doesn't work when an RDP level change is done.

The Option bytes must be re-read and re-loaded, which happens at a Power On Reset (POR) or when bit FLASH->CR OBL_LAUNCH is set. The latter is not accessible via SWD/JTAG after RDP has been changed to 0xBB or 0xCC.

There is hope that a usable sequence can be achieved by changing RDP to 0xBB and setting bit FLASH->CR OBL_LAUNCH from program code.
