ST-Link support
Would you be interested in a PR with some preliminary ST-Link support? I currently have erasing and flashing (and softdevice flashing) functional (that is, no MAC changing or debugging yet).
- [ ] "basic" targets: flash, reset, erase: #20
- [ ] "advanced" targets: flash bootloader, DFU, pin-reset
Yeah, we would be interested in that. We primarily use the JLink-edu modules here, but supporting other programmers would be great.
We'll have to determine a good method for specifying which programmer to use. Maybe just a define in app makefiles that defaults to JLink. We could have a "Makefile.jlink" and a "Makefile.stlink" and select between them.
I'd thought that we would initially just add targets like flash.stlink to existing makefiles, and then perhaps check if users' Makefiles have something like PROGRAMMER = stlink in them to decide on what happens if just flash is called.
Given that a .jlink and .stlink makefiles are bound to have a lot in common, I'm not sure if separating them too much will work well.
For reference, I'm still on this; it's just that I had a loooong break from all things embedded :)
I think I'll change #20 a bit to include "basic" programming, debugging and README and leave "advanced" programming for some latter time as I haven't had to flash the bootloader by hand even once yet.
