Install STM32duino on Raspbian?

I tried installing STM32 Cores which are coming from https://github.com/stm32duino/BoardMana … index.json but it throws an error at me. Can I solve this? Or isn’t this possible?
I just thought that it would be kinda cool to program the board with my Pi

FYI: The board I’m trying to use is a F091RC.

The error: http://imgur.com/a/R4H9R

There isn’t support for compiling on the RPi at the moment.

However someone has submitted a PR with the files to do this.

See

https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/ … 2/pull/283

No one has had time to test whether this PR is OK, hence its not been included yet.

And after inclusion, it would need to be added to the board manager package, which is not maintained by me, but is done by @ddrown, who only updates it occasionally.

So. If you want to try this

You’d need to clone the repo into your Arduino/hardware folder

Then pull the PR to your clone

I’d recommend you contact https://github.com/tekk who created the PR, about the best way to install from github

I cloned the repo with the pull request included and put it in /home/pi/Arduino/hardware I can see all the boards, but if I try to compile I get the following error (see picture in link).

FYI: compiling for an Arduino board works on the other hand..

Have you installed the relevant compiler to allow you to build for the STM32? I don’t have a Pi to test, but I’m sure someone here will know what exactly needs installing.

There is something odd with the board name, as lib maple does not support the nucleo 03

I wonder if you are mixing STMs core with the PR for the LibMaple core ??

Yes, I added the Nucleo F091RC manually, but that doesn’t matter because even when leaving it original and compiling for a Maple for example gives me the same result.

Do the Arduino SAM and SAMD boards work?

If so then they will install the arm-none-eabi-gcc/g++ toolchain.

You will probably have to edit your platform.txt file and change the path to point at the sam toolchain. Or… remove the directory portion of the command and make sure you have arm-none-eabi-gcc in your user PATH.

It seems like you are confused about which stm32 core you are using? Are you using the one from ST? or the one from Roger? or something else?

Actually I would like to use this https://github.com/stm32duino/Arduino_Core_STM32 as it includes my board. And yes you are right I can’t seem to compile for SAM and SAMD boards as well.

Can you point out what I specifically need to change? I would appreciate that a lot!

First step have you installed the arduino for arm?

https://www.arduino.cc/download_handler … arm.tar.xz

That should have a board support for the SAMD and SAM

Ok, almost there.. now I get an error after compilation, so I it can’t upload to the board..

The error in the picture below is in dutch, but it translates to “Can’t execute wrong executable file”

You are failing because it is trying to run an intel executable on an arm processor. You need to replace the intel binaries with arm binaries. That means compiling the source and putting the exectuables in the right place.

… or

You change to the upload method to “Mass Storage” , recompile and copy the .bin file it creates in /tmp/arduino_build_xxxx/sketchname.ino.bin and copy it to NODE_R091RC disk.

Well https://github.com/rogerclarkmelbourne/ … /pull/283 is a ARMv7 version, I tried this one now but it gives me the following error. It’s says it can’t find the shared libraries but they are in home/pi/Arduino/hardware/stm/tools/linux/stlink/st-flash/lib

/home/pi/Arduino/hardware/stm/tools/linux/stlink/st-flash: error while loading shared libraries: libstlink-shared.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Did you try recompiling and installing the massStorageCopy source and do a make install? The source is in the tools directory. That is a very simple program. All it does is find the mount point of the NUCELO-F091RC and copies the sketchname.bin file to it.

it would seem to me that there isn’t any arm-none-gcc/g++ compiler tool chain on arm platform itself isn’t it?

Wouldn’t that be ironic

Which raspberry pi are you using?

Why haven’t you tried the mass storage approach yet? It doesn’t seem like you are using the debug features of the stlink. The whole idea of putting a mass storage device as the upload method on the nucleo boards was to make it simple to use with no extra drivers required.

For other people who want to use the Arduino IDE in combination with stm32duino on Raspbian , I got it to work now after recompiling stlink from source and the massStorageCopy program from source.

You can clone this repo https://bitbucket.org/throwbin/arduino_core_stm32/src in /home/pi/Arduino and it all should work well straight away (after selecting your board ofcourse).
