Anyone using the mbed (online) compiler with the STM32F4 Nucleo?

Hello everyone,

Been playing with PIC's for a while, and decided to check out the AMR processor I've heard so much about.  I'm used to using the CCS PIC C compiler.  It comes with a 'User Manual' that (among other things) lists the available/"boxed" functions with a brief description of what parameters they use, what they return (if anything), what it does, and a small snippet of sample code.  Is there anything like that for for this compiler?  If so, where do you find it?  I'll eventually want to move to a 'local' compiler, but in the mean time I'll use that one.

Thanks

Hi rBot.

All you need to start developing with mbed can be found in their webpage. For example, the Handbook section contains source code of basic functions.

Hi Raflex,

Thanks for your reply.  I'd like to know where the 'basic functions' section is.  It took me a while to figure out that their delay function is called 'wait'.  I'm used to 'delay'.  What else is different.  Sure, I can import someone else's code, but I want to be able to write my own.  In order to do that, I need to know what the commands are.

OK, I'll get off the 'soap box' now.

Thanks again for your reply.

Hi bbarney,

Thanks, but been there.  Couldn't really find what I was looking for.  Been using PIC's for a while and programming with CCS C. In CCS C they have a 'delay' function.  You use what you know, right?  Took me a while to figure out that the mbed compiler used the function 'wait'.  It's for reasons like this that I'm looking for a list (somewhere) of their common commands.

Thanks for your reply, though.
