Hi there,
I've been trying to figure this one out for a day or so now with no luck.
I'm successfully able to build and program using Segger Embedded Studio, but I would prefer to work in Eclipse.
I have followed this tutorial while trying to get everything setup and working in Eclipse: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/tutorials/b/getting-started/posts/development-with-gcc-and-eclipse
The problem I'm having is that I am unable to get any example projects to successfully build with the 'make' command through the command prompt.
The error I am getting is as follows:
C:\nRF5_SDK_15.3.0_59ac345\examples\peripheral\blinky\pca10056\blank\armgcc>make
mkdir _build
cd _build && mkdir nrf52840_xxaa

I did find this post in the Nordic Dev Zone where the person asking for help had a very similar error: https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/37631/trying-to-build-project-with-gcc-but-comes-to-this-error-message
I have tried all the suggestions in that post which seemed to have to work, but they haven't worked for me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jordan
