Hey,

i encountered a problem using the CubeMX Eclipse plugin. When I made some changes to the startup code using the eclipse plugin and generate the Project code, opening braces are removed. Maybe this is a known problem and fixed in the standalone version. Unfortunatly I'm not able to find out which version of CubeMX is integrated in eclipse plugin. Code like this 

if
(...)
{
.....
}

is changed to 

if
(...)
...
}

Has anybody a workarround? Edit: I'm creating a ''True Studio'' project with CubeMX project settings. Regards, Sebastian #cubemx-braces-problem

I haven't encountered that using IAR's EWARM without Eclipse.

#define OPENBRACE {

OPENBRACE
...
}

I wonder if this has been fixed in the latest release.

Hello,

The bug was already fixed with CubeMX 4.7.1 (last one available on the web).

Sebastian,

Are you using this version and you still face issue with True Studio?

I had 10 opening braces that STM32CubeMX would remove whenever I generated code. This was much less suffering than replacing them each time. ;)

I would not consider a tool that can't even generate syntactically correct code.

However, when it comes to MCUs, I'm fortunately not bound to any company restrictions.

Hey,

sorry that i haven't answered for that long period.

Updating the CubeMX Eclipse Plugin solved my problem.

Sebastian

I much prefer syntactically incorrect than subtly wrong. In other cases (such as wrong DMA channel) I purposely injected syntax errors by spreading variable definitions across the ''BEGIN USER CODE'' marker to remind me to fix the ADC channel assignment whenever I regenerated code.
