Project scenario:

STM8L151G4XX MCU IAR engineering compilation error


Problem description

Fatal Error[Pe035]: #error directive: “Please select first the target STM8L device used in your application (in stm8l15x.h file)”
Open stm8l15x.h, and we can see the following code:

#if !defined (STM8L15X_MD) && !defined (STM8L15X_MDP) && !defined (STM8L15X_HD) && !defined (STM8L15X_LD) \

 #error "Please select first the target STM8L device used in your application (in stm8l15x.h file)"
#endif

/*  Tip: To avoid modifying this file each time you need to switch between these
        devices, you can define the device in your toolchain compiler preprocessor.

 - Low density STM8L15x devices are STM8L151C3, STM8L151K3, STM8L151G3, STM8L151F3,
   STM8L151C2, STM8L151K2, STM8L151G2 and STM8L151F2 microcontrollers where the 
   Flash memory density ranges between 4 and 8 Kbytes.

   STM8L151G6, STM8L152G4 and STM8L152G6 microcontrollers where the Flash memory
   density ranges between 16 and 32 Kbytes.
 - Medium density Plus devices are STM8L151R6, STM8L152R6 microcontrollers where
  the Flash memory density is fixed and equal to 32 Kbytes and a wider range of
  peripheral than the medium density devices.

Solution:

Method 1:
Modify directly in the stm8l15x.h file, delete the comment symbols of the macro definition needed, take STM8L151G4XX as an example, according to the above description, the model belongs to Medium density.
