The ST site is rather slow, so you may have to wait for a response of it for several seconds, just wait patiently, it will work. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "Get Software", accept the License Agreement (I didn't read it either.) and Login if you already have a login with ST or register if you do not yet have a login. In the meantime download and install the ST Visual Develop software. And then just wait for the license to arrive. Finish the installation and let your pc restart. The email address make sure you put: " STM8FSE_2020 License Request" as the subject. You can send this file as an attachment to an email or copy the text in it an put that in the body of your email to Cosmic. Then select "Write to File", save it in a place where you and administrator have access to: C:\ worked for me. Fill in the User, Company and Email with your real name and email address, I do not have a company so I just made up a nice name. With me the "On the Web" method didn't work so I chose the email option. I don't want any icons on the desktop.Īt the end of the install the Readme.txt opens telling you that you can regiiter the software in two ways. Take care to read the information in the next screens and select what you want or not, e.g. After installing all files, it wants to put itself in the "path", I made it register itself in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE so that it will work for all users of the pc, not just the administrator. Simply follow the instructions, accept the license (I haven't read it, does anyone?), fill in your name and some company name and click next through then next screens. Run the downloaded program as administrator of your pc (you'll need the admin password) so it can install in the "Program Files (x86)" directory. There are two compilers and two programs called Idea_STM8 and IdeaCXM in the download, we'll only use the STM8 compiler of it. After that you can download the compilers. Scroll down until you see the yellow block "STM8 free tools with no limits", click on the "Register and Download" link and fill in the requested info. In that time we can download and install the IDE from ST. I'll start with the download of the Cosmic compiler because the request for a license is handled by a employee of Cosmic so it can take some time, if you send the request in a weekend you will probably have to wait until the next week. (I know there is another compiler, SDCC, that is open source but I do not have any experience with it.) I think it is paid for by ST as a service for the the companies that use their hardware, but I'm not sure about that. The license is valid only for the pc on which the request is made. This license is free and valid for a year, after which you simply ask for a new license. Additionally you need a license to use the Cosmic compiler. You will need to register on the ST.com site and the site and download several programs from them.
