    The trouble with the ST driver is - as delivered - it supports Windows!?!.

    The trick is to remove the platform.c and platform.h files that are windows dependent and replace them with the versions for the STM32.

    You can get example code already configured for an STM32 at:

    http://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/products/ecosystems/stm32-open-development-environment/stm32cube-expansion-software/stm32-ode-sense-sw/x-cube-53l0a1.html

    Look for the x-cube-53L0A1 down at the bottom. It has example code that will work for STM32's. You might have to tailor the GPIO pins for your F103, but that's easy.
