I'm learning to code on STM32F429ZI Nucleo board and I've been trying to read temperature from ADC1 temperature sensor using STMStudio.
The code I found in one of tutorials didn't work so I tried checking value of "check" variable at various parts of code and then I've noticed that, not only the value of "check" variable doesn't change anywhere inside the main function, but also the STMStudio doesn't see any variables declared inside of the main function.
Any idea why is that?
I've tried different code which uses button to light up LED to check if the board is ok and it worked just fine.

/* USER CODE END SysInit */
/* Initialize all configured peripherals */
MX_GPIO_Init();
MX_ADC1_Init();
/* USER CODE BEGIN 2 */
HAL_ADC_Start(&hadc1);
check = 2;
const float V25 = 0.76; // [V]
const float Vsupply = 3.0; // [V]
const float ADCResolution = 4095;
const float avg_slope = 0.0025; // [V/deg. C]
/* USER CODE END 2 */
/* Infinite loop */
/* USER CODE BEGIN WHILE */
while (1)
{
if(HAL_ADC_PollForConversion(&hadc1,10) == HAL_OK){
check = 3;
SenseADC = HAL_ADC_GetValue(&hadc1);
Vsense=(SenseADC*Vsupply)/ADCResolution;
Temperature = (Vsense - V25)/avg_slope + 25;
HAL_ADC_Start(&hadc1);
}
}
}
The compiler must have noticed that the check variable is only written and never read, and optimized away the writes as having no purpose. For debugging purposes, you can declare it as volatile to force all writes to get through to memory.
The const values in the program are likewise victims of the optimization, the compiler has used the values directly in the code, possibility precalculating parts of the expressions.
