Re-arrange the generated code files in STM32CUBEIDE

[Mathan Raja]

Hi,

I want to rearrange the generated files of peripherals and protocols(like usart.c, tim.c, adc.c) from the core folder to the driver's folder and rename the core folder to the Application.

Is it possible in stm32cubeIDE?

Thanks

Mathan

Well, the STM32CubeIDE is based on Eclipse, so you have quite a lot of freedom.

However, you have to bear in mind that a whole range of tools are gathered under its umbrella, which have their own idea of structure. When you create a project with the STM32CubeIDE, e.g. the STM32CubeMX tool creates all the C files, H files, etc.

If you now reorganise everything, STM32CubeMX will not find its files again if you change the .ioc and then regenerate it, and will create the entire project anew - whereby no source text that you have inserted will be taken over. You may then be able to find your (first) files again, but it is guaranteed not to be much fun to insert the changes into the first file variants.

Is there a specific reason to change the file structure?

Well, there is no specific reason. Thanks
