At least his LCD worked. Mine makes text all scritchy and broken up like a bit driver is stuck. Chars look like a cross between morse code and braille. Tried 3 different 32F4 boards and gave up. The RGB test kinda works, although green is hardly green accoding to the two other people who looked.

You don't have to pay $300 a month for IAR, they have a $5000 one time payment option they are just as proud of.

The Raisonance RIDE compilerworks as well as IAR, but even with the kinda spendy STX PRO verion ($1150) you don't get to use the SWO debug channel. Which is a cryin' shame when you realize what it is capable of. Also it has no BSPs for the DISCOVERY which is really annoying.

Also, the examples do not necessarily have the size optimization maxed out. That will get some of them below 32k.

CCS is unlimited for TI's devboards and download pod hardware, and the full-license is a cost that (at least some) people can verbalize with a straight face.

Hi Nico,

Good update.

I had thought that STM had some free software, but I might be thinking of another vendor.

I can't believe that IAR wants 300/month for a software license. At those prices, they can't have many users and they certainly are not going to be used by the hobby market.

I have found that you get more people to use your hardware if you give the development software away. That is why Adruino and TI have such a big following in the hobby space.

Hopefully IAR will come to their senses and make a hobby version available.

Just a thought,

DAB
