STM32CubeProgrammer 2.10.0 and 2.11.0 External loader bug: if the EL's filename has more tha one dot (one dot only for its extension name) STM32CubeProgrammer goes in error.

[Gianluca Costa]

If the name (filename) of module has more than one dot ( "." ) the STM32CubeProgrammer can list it in the external loder (EL) selection, but when STM32CubeProgrammer tries to use the module it fails (it generates an error).

For example this EL name generates the error: EN25Q40_MT447R2_2.0.0.stldr

the same file renamed into EN25Q40_MT447R2.stldr (removing all dots) works.

Always best to avoid any "weirdness" in file (including folder) names

It's an age-old problem:

Hello @Gianluca Costa,

STM32CubeProgrammer should accept more than one dot in EL file name.

I will raise this issue internally to fix it in future release.
