delete of Middlewares/Third_party upon regeneration of code

dvescovi · ‎2025-06-04

I have some other third party utilities and code I would like to populate under the /Middlewares/Third_Party folder.

I have the freertos component selected in STM32CubeMX .ioc file and I noticed every time I regenerate code it wipes out the Third_Party folder and repopulates with its's CMSIS and FreeRTOS stuff. ... but also deleting my other sources. Is there a way of preventing this?

Don't put your stuff under folders managed by STM32CubeMX.

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.
A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.

Hello @dvescovi,

To prevent STM32CubeMX from deleting your third party utilities, under Project Manager, uncheck Generate Under Root then in Code Generator, select Copy all used libraries into the project folder.
