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

So did you do that?

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

https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/60423/eclipse/245725#245725

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?

[Manoj Hiwarkar]

Still the issue persist.

[Håkon Alseth]

Please post the error you're seeing.

[Manoj Hiwarkar]

See the first message 

[Håkon Alseth]

If you changed the path, as I suggested, the error message shall also change.

Can you please post the updated error message?

Maybe it's an issue with spaces (' ') embedded within the command; here is an example for a different compiler which I wanted to use from the command line (with a great deal of trouble):

rem: Actual full path is as follows, but invokation must not use spaces (escape with %)
rem:   C:\Program Files (x86)\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 7.4\common\bin\IarBuild.exe
rem:
echo Setting build path to: C:\Program Files(x86)\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 8.4_3\common\bin
rem: SET  path=%ProgramFiles(x86)%\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 7.4\common\bin;%path%;
SET path==%ProgramFiles(x86)%\IAR Systems\Embedded Workbench 8.4_3\common\bin;%path%;

This is only a suggestion, I don't have a sample for gcc just yet

what to to with these spaces (' ') ?
