Dependencies
============

make
sdcc
libusb-dev (for stm8flash)


udev example rules
==================

STM8S-Discovery:
----------------

SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0483", ATTRS{idProduct}=="3744", MODE:="0666", GROUP:="dialout", SYMLINK+="stlink_%n"

The discovery board also emulates an USB mass storage device. However the
implementation is buggy and it doesn't really work with linux. It's best to
just ignore the usb-storage endpoints. You can do this temporarly using the
following command:

  # echo "0483:3744:i" >/sys/module/usb_storage/parameters/quirks

To make this permanent, create a file '/etc/modprobe.d/stdiscovery.conf' with
the following content:

<snip>
options usb-storage quirks=0483:3744:i
</snip>

The changes will take effect on next reboot or after manually unloading the
usb-storage driver

  # modprobe -r usb_storage

This might not work if there is another device connected that is or emulates
an USB storage device.


Build
=====

Getting the source via GIT:
---------------------------

git clone git://git.spreadspace.org/stm8-utils.git
cd stm8-utils
make -C contrib

build and flash blink example
-----------------------------

# cd blink
adapt Makefile (set BOARD_TYPE)
# make program


Some Hints
==========

The object files for builded libs will be called lib-<name>.o so make sure
not to use files named like this for your own code. i.e. if you want
to use the `led` library it's not possible to have a source file name
lib-led.c inside your project.

To use the STM8S StdPeriph Library in your project you have to provide the
path to the library source code. You may do this by calling `make` inside
the contrib tree. But any external path is ok. In order to build the spl
object file the build system has to call `make clean` inside the SPL_PATH
so make sure there is no build inside which you still need. Also paralell
builds of several projects using the same SPL_PATH is not possible.
