RE: Unable to build any sample projects with nrf9160 on Mac OS 10.15.2 - Assertion failed: The toolchain is unable to build a dummy C file

Martin Lesund — Thu, 30 Apr 2020 06:44:30 GMT

From the output it looks like there is an issue with the linker search path:

clang: error: unknown argument '-meabi=5'; did you mean '-mabi=5'?

Had someone internally to verify that it works:

It is most likely some user misconfiguration of the environment variables that you should look over to see if they are correct.

RE: Unable to build any sample projects with nrf9160 on Mac OS 10.15.2 - Assertion failed: The toolchain is unable to build a dummy C file

Yes, I have tried deleting the cache. I have verified the NRF git is on the master and current, i have made sure my west is updated.

The issue has to do with clang error -meabi=5

Hi Marka,
Could you try to delete the cache ?
