FatFS / STM32SD cannot compile examples

[phil bowles]

Getting started trying to use FatFS and/or STM32SD. I have to say I find the lack of documentation and working examples very difficult. I see in another thread that someone has the same compile errors and this was because his board did not have SDIO.

I have a NUCLEOF429ZI which I *know* has SDMMC - is this the same as SDIO? if not, how do I get around this? Are there any working examples? Is it too much to ask to provide a list of supported boards in the documentation? Or maybe at least *one* example in FatFS. I am happy and experienced enough to get most things working if I can find documenation for them - is there a guide anywhere?

Making it harder is this:

FatFs
The FatFs has several user defined options, which is specified from within the ffconf.h file.

This library provides a default user defined options file named ffconf_default.h

- but neither of those files exist in the version of FatFS I just downloaded.

I tried the Cardinfo example from STM32SD using boards/core 1.9.0 and:
Using library STM32SD-master at version 1.2.2 in folder: C:\Users\phil\Documents\Arduino\libraries\STM32SD-master
Using library FatFs-master at version 2.0.3 in folder: C:\Users\phil\Documents\Arduino\libraries\FatFs-master

I get the following errors:

As the nucleo F429 doesn't have by default a card slot the HAL SD module is not enabled you will have to define it using hal_conf_extra.h.
https://github.com/stm32duino/wiki/wiki ... ion--150-1

And define this

Code: Select all

HAL_SD_MODULE_ENABLED

Excellent - thank you.

But this is kind of my point - why isn't this in the documentation for STM32SD ?

Now down to one error:

Something this simple should not be so difficult and so undocumented!
