GCC error

[Manoj Hiwarkar]

I am getting this error again and again despite that I have copied the right path and version to Makefile.windows file.

C:\Nrf_Env\nRF5SDK14101dda907\examples\ble_peripheral\ble_app_beacon\pca10040e\s112\armgcc>make
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, "C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\8 2019-q3-updatearm-none-eabi-gcc" --version, ...) failed.

So did you do that?

As already noted, this would all be done for you with SES:

Setting up Eclipse is not a task for beginners - or even for faint-hearted veterans!

As of now i have to use eclipse only. You also have given armgcc folder in you sdk Can you help me to get  rid of this issue?

Then you're going to have to seek-out some tutorials on how to properly set up Eclipse for yourself.

There are plenty available - search this forum for starters.

You will need to be familiar with programming IDEs in general.

You will have to learn how to read, understand, and act on messages like that.

Again, it is really not a beginner's task - do you have colleagues / supervisors / teachers who could help you?

[Manoj Hiwarkar]

beginner for what ? I have followed all the procedure and able to compile it properly with SDK 13 and earlier. But I am facing the issue only with SDK 14  and later.

Cannot find: 'C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\8 2019-q3-updatearm-none-eabi-gcc'.

Try setting C:\Program Files (x86)\GNU Tools ARM Embedded\8 2019-q3-update\bin\

Cheers,
