How to generate a *.bin file instead of a *.elf file

[Domy_ST]

hello ST Community,

Is it possible to generate a binary file that is a *.elf file from a project developed by STM32CubeIDE?
Using the correct settings for generating *.bin files.

The *.bin file would be used to create a bootloader via UART for one of the STM32 microcontrollers.

Thanks for your valuable support.

Hello  

Let me thank you for posting.

Right-click on your project, Go to Properties, C/C++ Build → Settings, Tool Settings → MCU Post build outputs.

And enable Convert to binary file (-O Binary), then build the project.

Thanks.

Mahmoud

To be pedantic, the solution is not instead of  the .elf - the .bin file is created in addition to the .elf.
