Hey all,
I've never used Cygwin much in the past for compiling let alone
cross-compiling to another arch.
I've been playing with ARM GNU GCC and some examples from nordic
semiconductor for some of their demo boards (The Thingy)
The make file that comes with the project includes source files using
the (abspath ../main.c) (as one example) which GCC really seems to hate.
The output from GCC is the full path
(/home/bkamen/workspace-nordic/.....) right down to the file and gcc
tells me it can't find the file.
if I change the mail file to use a relative path, gcc can find
that... but ultimately I'm trying to understand the issue than just
patch around it.
Without know how your make file looks it seems the paths are absolute
and wrong... gcc usually don't have any problems with full absolute
paths.
The reason I think the paths are wrong is it does not start with
/cygdrive/c/your_dir/
I'm using the arm-gcc from the developer.arm.com website.
It is the same I use.
I have to correct my self here. That compiler is a Windows PE executable
and it will not take any posix paths...
The one I used in the end was I compiled the arm-gcc from the sources my
self....
Is there something else I'm missing? What files can I offer (like the
makefile) that can help determine the issue?
Look at the failing command and make sure what ever paths and files
are used are correct.
