Raisonance IDE 7 question

billabott

Has anyone tried the new Raisonance integrated development environment (Ride7) with STM8L - Discovery?

I won one in the knode contest run by AreYou InTheKnode (Renford).  It appears that Ride7 makes STM's IDEs

superfluous.  Looking for someone to verify that point of view.  thanks.

  • It is correct that Raisonance makes free development enviroments for ST devices. I have been using Ride7 for many years now and I have no complaints.

     

    I have used their IDE for both STM32Fxxx development (Cortex-M3) and for STM8S development (8-bit MCU). I also got their USB programmer/debugger which interface nicely with the IDE (of course).

    Ride7 is definitely a good and recommendable compiler and IDE solution for ST development, especially because it is free.

     

    If you have any questions feel free to write them here or in a PM to me.

     

    Best Regards

    I found that I still had to load the ST Visual Development (stvd) and let it use the Raisonance Assembler/C compiler/Object Linker as the toolset.  It only took a whole day but I managed to climb the first learning curve and get the Discover project recompiled with only 14 warnings relevant to modifing the flash memory on the target chip.  However, I have not yet been able to get either Rflasher or ST Visual Programmer to give any indication that they know how to talk to the demo board - STM8L Discovery.

     

    Ride7 and RKit-STM8 are found at raisonance.com.

    The ST tools are found here.

    The  ST-Link on the STM8L-Discovery was recognized by Win XP Pro on my Laptop.  Firmware updated thereon.  Still unrecognized by Win 7.  Unhappy camper with regard to this.

     

    The good news is that I am buying a Arduino UNO and books to do a quick project.

    On windows 7 I'm using XPmode. Or try using virtualbox with xp installed inside. My guess is, that windows 7 sees it as flash and do not install ST-Link drivers
