Error on HardwareTimer compile.

[beaka]

Hi, I am getting an error on the library HardwareTimer saying something was not declared in this scope.

/home/bruce/.arduino15/packages/STMicroelectronics/hardware/stm32/2.10.1/libraries/SrcWrapper/src/HardwareTimer.cpp:710:49: error: 'PinMap_TIM' was not declared in this scope 710 | if (STM_PIN_INVERTED(pinmap_function(pin, PinMap_TIM))) {

What have I not done?

[fpistm]

I don't know. There is no issue with the core. You probably do something wrong but hard to help with no information.

[beaka]

What must be included to define the Constants?

What could I do in a simple program in the IDE could stop a definition in the library?

[fpistm]

Nothing. It is defined. You havecan issue with your setup. Maybe antivirus which put some files in quarantine?
Anyway a default sketch build without any issue. You can see the GitHub action which builds the core without any issue. And I use it daily.

[beaka]

I am using Fedora Linux, latest version of everything.
Yes I can compile an empty setup/loop program but as soon as I reference HAL I get errors.

I will try an earlier version if it will install as I have seen other commments on Version 2.9 and above.

[fpistm]

Yes I can compile an empty setup/loop program but as soon as I reference HAL I get errors.

So no issue.
This is your code. What you call "reference HAL"?

[beaka]

OK, I went back to version 2.8.1 and now the only error is "HAL_StatusTypeDef does not define a type"

I have greped for the definition in the library folder but I cannot see where it is defined, only where it is used many times.

Do you know where it is defined?

I am compiling for a Weact STM32G474.

[beaka]

OK, to see if I can get anything a bit more sophisticated than blinky to compile I tried to compile this project:
https://github.com/RoCorbera/BlueVGA/tree/master

But again no luck, I just get masses of errors.

Library is probably not compatible. It seems tested with older core version.

[fpistm]

I've tested the library and it works as expected.
All example build except 2 due to 2 minor typo, see RoCorbera/BlueVGA#20.
So again don't know what you've made but seems issue is on your side.

[beaka]

Thats OK, I will stick to the CubeIDE and not worry about the Arduino folks that wnat a bit more than blinky. No use in writing something that will be useless next version.

You can do most than blink. Unfortunately not all third party libraries are compatible mainly when they do not use standard Arduino API.
Finally you simply claim it does not build without give any information. Hard to help.

[beaka]

I found the answer. There was a file in the project called "board.h" and when I changed the name to "myboard.h" the project compiled.

Contents of board.h:
`#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C"
{
#endif

#include "main.h"
#include "stm32g4xx_hal.h"

#define BOOT0_Pin GPIO_PIN_8
#define C_RESET_Pin GPIO_PIN_15
#define KEY_Pin GPIO_PIN_13
#define LED_Pin GPIO_PIN_6
#define TEST_Out GPIO_PIN_9

void board_gpio_init(void);
uint8_t KEY_Pin_getstate(void);
void LED_Pin_toggle(void);
void LED_Pin_set(uint8_t set);

void IWD_Init(void);
void IWD_Tickle(void);
void MX_ADC1_Inita(void);
void MX_COMP5_Init(void);
void RND_Init(void);
void SystemClock_Config(void);
void WWDG_Init(void);
void WWDG_Tickle(void);

#ifdef __cplusplus
}
#endif

#endif`

[beaka]

In fact the file could be empty and it would stop the compile from "HAL_StatusTypeDef" error.

Hi @beaka
Don't know where you get this file board.h but not in the core.
As stated here https://github.com/RoCorbera/BlueVGA/tree/master build without any issue.
https://github.com/orgs/stm32duino/discussions/2772#discussioncomment-13762268

[beaka]

So you did not test the actual board but have to prove yourself right. I wish I could thank you for the help like is given on other products support pages but I can't, I did not get any. But you think you are always right so I suppose you do not care.

Honestly I don't know what answer to you.
You told you had an issue to build. I ask for setup, config ... then took time to compile with the library you link. It builds correctly. Then you talk about a file which is not part of stm32duino sources nor the library.
What did you expect now?
I made my best to support all users but it seems hard or impossible to help you as it seems you don't want to be honest on what you do or made.

So where you found this board.h file?

[beaka]

I am not talking about the .h file any more, I am talking about the example provided with the ST MCU for Arduina as shown in the pictures. I have moved on as you suggested and am using your code, not mine or anyone else's. What other sort of "config" or setup do you need. I included the pictures of the settings in Arduino, I was not aware anything else needs to be setup. Again all I did to test this example is plug the board into the USB port, open the example and ensure the correct board is selected, set the upload to DFU and then upload. The serial monitor gives the result shown. This is what I have always been asking, what else do I need to do?

So why comment here as it is not the same subject!

[beaka]

To make it abundantly clear what I have done. I have reinstalled both Arduino and STM MCU on 2 fedora and fresh install on a Ubuntu. All have the same result. I have got various things working for my application, Cordic, Timer, FPU math and DSP libraries all work just fine. What I cannot do is get a result form the ADC. Everything I do works on a 401CC except of course the Cordic. When I try the simplest of all code, an analogRead call in the loop and print out the result all I get is 0's. Again, it works as expected on the 401CC. I tested 2 of the 4 boards I purchased new out of the packets on the basic analogRead loop and still all 0's, no voltage. I tested the VREF pin and it has 3.3V as expected from the schematic even though I jumpered it as well. I am not sure what else you expect me to do. If there is nothing you can add I must assume the Weact store on Aliexpress sold me 4 dud boards.

Yes it is probably hardware issue. Fake mcu, broken ADC IP .... but surely not software issue.
