Yes it does Samuel - at least on a KL25Z

Isn't the Arduino wifi shield something else than a wifly?

It has a TI CC3000 chip on board and includes a socket for a Micro SD chip. I was using Dave Smart's code, and hacked the pin names for the KL25Z.

Here are the Arduino Wifi shield (http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoWiFiShield) and Nucleo ST F401RE (http://developer.mbed.org/platforms/ST-Nucleo-F401RE/) boards I have. Will the library work for communication between these two boards?

Hema - this library is only for the Wifly module. It will not work for the Arduino WiFi shield

This is what I am using for the KL25Z, Both the WiFly and SD Flash interfaces work:
