STM32CubeMX

adding stm32 firmware packages from git to CubeMX

Inside STM32Cube/Repository:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STM32CubeH7.git
git checkout v1.12.1

View the package.xml and note:

<PackDescription Release="FW.H7.1.12.0" Patch="FW.H7.1.12.1">

Rename the git folder to STM32Cube_{VERSION}. So for this example it would be STM32Cube_FW_H7_V1.12.1. Now the firmware package should be listed in the CubeMX software package manager.

change project from nucleo board to mcu only

I created two empty projects: One for the nucleo-h753zi board and one for the h753zi mcu only. Then I looked at the diff of the .ioc files:

diff nucleo-h753zi/nucleo-h753zi.ioc stm32h753zi-mcu-only/stm32h753zi-mcu-only.ioc

I removed some configuration differences which did not seem to be related this, just different defaults.

2d1
< BSP_IP_NAME=NUCLEO-H753ZI
16,19c15,18
< Mcu.IP1=NVIC
< Mcu.IP2=RCC
< Mcu.IP3=SYS
< Mcu.IP4=NUCLEO-H753ZI
---
> Mcu.IP1=MEMORYMAP
> Mcu.IP2=NVIC
> Mcu.IP3=RCC
> Mcu.IP4=SYS
105,106c63,64
< ProjectManager.ProjectFileName=nucleo-h753zi.ioc
< ProjectManager.ProjectName=nucleo-h753zi
---
> ProjectManager.ProjectFileName=stm32h753zi-mcu-only.ioc
> ProjectManager.ProjectName=stm32h753zi-mcu-only
115c73
< board=NUCLEO-H753ZI
< boardIOC=true
---
> board=custom

So to change the nucleo-h753zi project to a mcu only one, I did the following modifications to the .ioc: Remove the lines:

BSP_IP_NAME=NUCLEO-H753ZI
Mcu.IP4=NUCLEO-H753ZI
boardIOC=true

and change: board=NUCLEO-H753ZI to board=custom &
Mcu.IPNb=5 to Mcu.IPNb=4, because we removed one IP line.
This seems to work, but I cannot guarantee anything.
