Main.h is not found

[Bea_12]

Hi,

I generated the code in CubeMX and opened it in VSCode. However, I cannot run the code because VSCode cannot find main.h. I'm not sure why this is happening. I've generated the code twice, but the problem persists. The main.h file is located in the Core > Inc folder, and main.c is in the Core > Src folder. Does anyone know what might be causing this issue? Thanks!

Did you import the project and open the folder? Here are instructions:

Yes, I followed the instructions, but I have the feeling that something might be off with the settings or something else. Is there something I might need to adjust?

If it's not finding the headers, that means your Include Paths need fixing - these are what tell the compiler where to find header files.

It seems like I've resolved one of the issues by changing some settings in STM32CubeMX. However, the main.c and main.h files are still incorrect. No matter what I change, the files remain problematic. Additionally, I forgot to install STM32CubeCLT, but that hasn’t affected anything else so far. I do not know what i could change that my program works. Does anyone know please explain it to me.

Excellent - what settings did you change?
