Printing (in C) to IDE console on STM32CubeIDE
I'm starting to use CubeIDE to program a NUCLEO-F401RE board (with sensors attached) and in one of my projects I had to get the voltage of the board and print it somewhere on my laptop (connected to the board via usb cable).
I got this to work using HAL_UART_Transmit function to send the string and PuTTY, on my laptop, to receive and print the string.
Now, I noticed that there is a Console integrated in the IDE where the IDE automatically prints control information, compilation errors and such and I'd like to print the voltage (possibly using printf since I'm programming in C) here rather than using PuTTY, but it doesn't seem so straightforward (as in many other IDEs that I've used) from what I've read on the internet, for instance, here.
I get that here we have two different computers talking to each other, so printing using printf is not as easy as in other situations where code is written, compiled and executed all on the same computer.
My question is:
why isn't there a "console tab" in the IDE where the result of the printf, generated on the board, is displayed? And if there is, how to set it up? Is it simply some settings configuration in the project properties or do I have to modify the low level I/O C functions as stated in the discussion linked above?
Thank you.
Create a new Command Shell Console.
Configure the new Console just as you did with PuTTY.
