I am following Tutorial 7 on "Development with GCC and Eclipse" and I am working in the Windows 8.1. I have followed instructions from the tutorial for installing the arm-none-eabi toolchain and the SDK files, so I am at the step of adding the toolchain to the environment variable. The example in the tutorial is using 4.9.3, but I have installed the latest version 5.4.1; so, I have set the PATH variable to
/GNU Tools ARM Embedded/5.4 2016q2/bin
When I change directory to //armgcc and then run "make" I get the following error:
rm -rf _build process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, rm -rf _build, ...) failed. (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified. : *** [clean] Error 2
I have double-checked the Windows.makefile contents, and edited for the correct version of gcc which is 5.4.1 based on arm-none-eabi-gcc --version output. I have also checked to see that the PATH variable includes the toolchain directory which is in my case:
C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\5.4 2016q2\bin
I do note that there are two (2) gcc files in the bin directory: arm-none-eabi-gcc and arm-none-eabi-gcc-5.4.1.
Can you see anything that I have done wrong? Is there a common error that people make in this setup process? Thanks very much for your help.
