STM32F4 discovery board

Hi All,

I have an STM32F4 discovery board that I would like to use with mbed. The mbed github readme mentions that this platform is supported, however it does not appear to be listed on the platforms link at the top of this site.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to work with this board using mbed (the online verison if possible), or do I need to do a special build of mbed from the repo and work with it offline?

Regards James

You can only use it offline, it isn't available on the online compiler.

I don't know if they still use the same demands, but they mentioned once for the online compiler it needs to have a board supporting drag and drop programming and the other mbed stuff (like serial over USB), and additionally use a controller from one of their silicon partners: NXP and Freescale.

Hi James. did you manage it to work with the STM32F4 discovery board?, i am also interested in how to do that but still don't have this board on my hands to try. thanks.

Sorry, I have been too busy on other projects to try this board, but mbed have announced ( http://mbed.org/blog/entry/STM32-support-is-coming-in-mbed/) they will officially support stm32 boards soon.

Thanks Erik. I believe the board does support drag and drop programming, but I haven't had a chance to play with it much yet.
