Maple mini with USB serial in Arduino fails

PlatformIO Core
1

I’m trying to port a small application that works fine under the original Arduino IDE, but I’m not able to get it working on Platformio.

// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
  Serial.begin(115200);
    while (!Serial)
  {
    digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN,!digitalRead(LED_BUILTIN)); // Turn the LED from off to on, or on to off
    delay(100);         // fast blink
  }
  Serial1.begin(8*115200,SERIAL_8E1);
}

   serializeJson(jsonDoc,str);//
   str+="\n";
  Serial.println(str);
    Serial1.println(str);
    Serial.flush();
    Serial1.flush();
}

I tried all kind of build options, but none seem to work correctly. Code compiles but doesn’t write anything to UART1 or USB.

[env:maple]
platform = ststm32
board = maple
framework = arduino
build_flags = 
    -D USBD_USE_CDC
    -D PIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_ENABLE_CDC
    -D PIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_USB_FULLMODE
    -D USBCON
	-D USBD_VID=0x0483
	-D USB_MANUFACTURER="Unknown"
	-D USB_PRODUCT="\"BLUEPILL_F103C8\""
	-D HAL_PCD_MODULE_ENABLED

Ok, made some progress. This .ini works !

[env:maple]
platform = ststm32
board = maple_mini_origin
framework = arduino
upload_protocol = serial
build_flags = 
    -D USBD_USE_CDC
    -D PIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_ENABLE_CDC
    -D PIO_FRAMEWORK_ARDUINO_USB_FULLMODE
