 To compile the demo programs you can use the [[https://atollic.com/truestudio/|Atollic TrueStudio]] development environment. Note the Atollic TrueStudio is cross-platform. The information outlined on this page applies to both Microsoft Windows and Linux users.
-===== Toolchain configuration =====
+===== Workspace creation in TrueStudio =====
-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.
+Two demo projects are included in the OpenBLT bootloader package. One for the bootloader itself and one for the demo user program. This user program is configured such that it can be programmed, into the internal flash memory of the microcontroller, during a firmware update with the bootloader.

+The first step in getting the the bootloader up-and-running, is the creation of the Eclipse workspace in TrueStudio. After starting TrueStudio, you are prompted to open a workspace. It is easiest to create a new one in the following directory: .\Target\Demo\ARMCM3_STM32F1_Olimexino_STM32_TrueStudio\
+{{:manual:demos:olimexino_stm32_truestudio_workspace_creation.png?600|}}
-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]].
+To import the demo programs into the workspace, select //File -> Import// from the program menu. Then select //General -> Existing Projects into Workspace//. On the next screen you select the following directory as the root directory: .\Target\Demo\ARMCM3_STM32F1_Olimexino_STM32_TrueStudio\. Eclipse will automatically find the **Boot** and **Prog** projects and select them:

-Before the bootloader can be used, it needs to be built and programmed into the STM32F103's internal flash memory. The steps in this section only need to be done once.
+Click the //Finish// button to complete the project import operation.
-To build the bootloader, open a command prompt in directory **\Target\Demo\ARMCM3_STM32F1_Olimexino_STM32_GCC\Boot\** and run the command:

-The bootloader program is now ready to be programmed into the internal flash memory of the STM32F103. Make sure the Segger J-Link debugger interface it connected to the JTAG connector on the Olimexino-STM32 board and the other side to your PC via a USB cable. Next, select //Debug -> Start Debug Session (F8)// from EmBitz's program menu to flash the bootloader program. Once done, you can start the bootloader program by selecting //Debug -> Run (F5)// from the program's menu.
+The bootloader program is now ready to be programmed into the internal flash memory of the STM32F103RB microcontroller. Make sure the Olimexino-STM32 board is connected to your PC via a ST-LINK/V2 debugger interface. Next, select //Run -> Debug// from the menu to flash the bootloader program. This will launch the Debug perspective in Eclipse. Once done, you can start the bootloader program by selecting //Run -> Resume// from the menu.
 Alternatively, you can use your favorite programmer to flash the bootloader using one of the following files, depending on what file type your programmer supports:
-  * \Target\Demo\ARMCM3_STM32F1_Olimexino_STM32_GCC\**Boot**\bin\**openblt_olimexino_stm32.elf**
+  * \Target\Demo\ARMCM3_STM32F1_Olimexino_STM32_TrueStudio\**Boot**\Debug\**openblt_olimexino_stm32.elf**
-  * \Target\Demo\ARMCM3_STM32F1_Olimexino_STM32_GCC\**Boot**\bin\**openblt_olimexino_stm32.srec**
