STM32CubeIDE and STM32Cube MX in version 2.0
Hi,
I'm a teacher, not a NASA technician, and for years I've been using STM32CubeMX with Nucleo series boards to teach my classes of 16-17 year-olds the basics of microcontroller programming. After a few years, I'd prepared numerous examples of increasing difficulty, with the MX section being a key component. Along with the exercises, I'd prepared the lessons on slides. If the IDE version changed, I'd have to make a few small adjustments. Now, in the labs, some technicians or colleagues have decided to install version 2.0. The difficulties in integrating the MX environment have increased exponentially. I have two solutions: either ask the technicians to ALSO install version 1.19 (an issue that involves extra work, money, time, and arguments with colleagues), or I'll spend a few weeks adapting the exercises (the first three took me two days) and rewriting the lessons. I would like to point out that in the integrated environment, only one lesson was needed to explain the MX functions, now with separate MX (which presents enormous difficulties in the interface, more lessons will be needed to operate on an environment that is, to say the least, 'wooden'). Thanks for everything anyway.
