 To program the bootloader into the internal flash on the STM32F207 microcontroller,​ the [[http://​www.segger.com/​development-tools.html|Segger J-Link]] JTAG interface was used.

-To compile ​the demo programs you can use the [[http://www.emblocks.org/|EmBitz]] development environment from Em::Blocks. The version that was used to create these demo programs was {{:​manual:​embitz_0_42.zip?​linkonly|EmBitz version 0.42}}.+To build the demo programs you can use the [[https://developer.arm.com/open-source/​gnu-toolchain/​gnu-rm|GNU ARM Embedded]] toolchain.

 +===== Toolchain configuration =====
 +
 +The demo programs are configured for building with a Makefile. Before attempting to perform a build, update the location of the toolchain binaries (i.e. //​arm-none-eabi-gcc//​) in the Makefile. It is set in variable **TOOL_PATH**. If the toolchain binaries are available on the path, then the **TOOL_PATH** variable can be left empty.

 +{{:​manual:​demos:​makefile_toolpath.png?​nolink&​|}}

 +
 +It is assumed that tools such as GNU //make// and //rm// are installed and available on the path. For (Ubuntu) Linux users this can be achieved by running command: //sudo apt-get install build-essential//​. Windows users can install the [[https://​gnu-mcu-eclipse.github.io/​windows-build-tools/​|GNU MCU Eclipse Windows Build Tools]].
