u8glib with STM32f103c8t6 board

searcher Wed Dec 16, 2015 3:00 pm

Hello,

Does anybody know how to make the u8glib libary work with an STM32f103c8t6 board? I would really like to drive my 128×64 OLED display via SPI. It works with an Arduino board, but fails with my STM32f103c8t6 boad (giving compiler errors).

The constructor is the following:
U8GLIB_SH1106_128X64 u8g(PA5, PA7, PA4, PB0, PB1);

The compiler error is as follows:
In file included from /Users/admin/Documents/Arduino/libraries/U8glib/U8glib.h:41:0,
from /Users/admin/Documents/Arduino/ReadAnalogVoltage_test/ReadAnalogVoltage_test.ino:1:
/Users/admin/Documents/Arduino/hardware/Arduino_STM32-master/STM32F1/cores/maple/Print.h:26:37: fatal error: libmaple/libmaple_types.h: No such file or directory
#include <libmaple/libmaple_types.h>

I tried copying libmaple_types.h from another board in the STM32 master file, but that resulted in a host of other errors.

Your help is much appreciated.

That is strange since the file is located in STM32F1/system/libmaple/include/libmaple/libmaple_types.h

Can you turn verbose ON, and provide the complete compiler call to see if and include path “-I” is missing ?

Thanks for your response!

The compiler call is as follows:

/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/arduino-builder -dump-prefs -logger=machine -hardware “/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware” -hardware “/Users/admin/Library/Arduino15/packages” -hardware “/Users/admin/Documents/Arduino/hardware” -tools “/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/tools-builder” -tools “/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/hardware/tools/avr” -tools “/Users/admin/Library/Arduino15/packages” -built-in-libraries “/Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/Java/libraries” -libraries “/Users/admin/Documents/Arduino/libraries” -fqbn=Arduino_STM32-master:STM32F1:genericSTM32F103C:device_variant=STM32F103C8,upload_method=STLinkMethod -ide-version=10606 -build-path “/var/folders/ln/l00c0q_s43jd160vtw2xjlrr0000gn/T/build6481d8de931d720dbd87fb9550f397a8.tmp” -warnings=all -prefs=build.warn_data_percentage=75 -verbose “/Users/admin/Documents/Arduino/ReadAnalogVoltage_test/ReadAnalogVoltage_test.ino”

It looks like and include path “-I” is indeed missing. If this causes the fact that the compiler can’t find libmaple_types.h, how can I set up the compiler call to include and include path “-I” ?

Euuh ???

Which version of IDE are you using ?

With 1.6.5, you should get the gcc called like that (in my case under F4) and you can see all the -I paths :

Remember…
The forum is not supporting 1.6.6 final.

Yes ! version 1.6.6 should be banned from the whole planet … :evil:

Time to fork the Arduino IDE Repo backdated to the 1.6.5 final release.

Honestly.. I think that even if Arduino.cc stopped distributing older versions, Im sure someone else could host them.

Github now has a website type feature where they allow people to store binaries for releases, so I could also easily do this at the moment on the stm32duino github account.

did anyone manage to get the u8glib working?

kokospalme Sun May 06, 2018 1:24 pm

I got it!
HW-SPI doesn’t seem to work, but SW-SPI! this is my code (if anyone else is having the same problem):

#include <Arduino.h> #include <U8g2lib.h>

#ifdef U8X8_HAVE_HW_SPI
#include <SPI.h>
#endif
#ifdef U8X8_HAVE_HW_I2C
#include <Wire.h>
#endif

U8G2_SSD1306_64X48_ER_2_4W_SW_SPI u8g2(U8G2_R0, PB13, PB15, PB12, PB11 , PB10);

void setup(void) {
u8g2.begin();
}

void loop(void) {
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.setFont(u8g2_font_ncenB08_tr); // choose a suitable font
u8g2.drawStr(0,10,"Hellooooo"); // write something to the internal memory
u8g2.sendBuffer(); // transfer internal memory to the display

delay(1000);
u8g2.clearBuffer(); // clear the internal memory
u8g2.drawStr(0,10,"World"); // write something to the internal memory
u8g2.sendBuffer(); // transfer internal memory to the display
delay(1000);

}

Which core do you use?
