STM32CubeIDE - replace spaces by tabs

I wanted to configure STM32CubeIDE so that it replaces tab character by spaces, when editing source code. Easy, once one knows where to look smiley:

  • select Window > Preferences
  • select C/C++ > Code Style > Formatter
  • create a new profile, based on the profile you prefer
  • in the Indentation tab, select Spaces only for Tab policy

Pysense: hardware setup in a virtual machine

PysenseI had to help someone starting a project which includes, among others, a Pysense board.

The development environment is Linux Mint 18.3, running in a VirtualBox virtual machine (VirtualBox version 5.2.26). The host system is a MacBook Pro running macOS Mojave.

One difficulty that the user may face with this environment relates to the USB device redirection. When the Pysense is switched to bootloader mode, for firmware upgrade, it stays in this mode less than 7 seconds, which is not long enough to configure VirtualBox.

In the following article, I describe a procedure that allows to get round this problem, and to perform the firmware upgrade.
