Update Eclipse IDE

[adriananthony066]

Hey, I want to open a project from my peer, but i cant because the version for STMCubeMX with which it was generated is newer then mine

I then do that and 'Check for Updates', which doesn't work and gives me an error. 

When i try to manually access the website, it doesn't work. I really don't understand what chatgpt.com has to do with any of this either. I can't seem to find any other post mentioning this, but I apologies if I'm wrong.

Thanks for the help!

Rather than try to update, I would suggest a new install.

You don't have to uninstall the old one(s) before installing a new one - they can be installed & used side-by-side.

(you'll need a separate workspace per version)

Which website - ST or Eclipse?

The website was the Eclipse site, but it was best just to wipe the install and get a new one. No point trying to save it.

If you want to update STM32CubeIDE, you can install a new version from here:

STM32CubeIDE | Software - STMicroelectronics

 

The download seems to be down at the moment when I try to download after logging in. You can try downloading as a guest. If that doesn't work, you'll have to wait for ST to feed the gerbils that power their web servers. They seem to be down quite a lot.

The update from within STM32CubeIDE has always been flaky.
