#88701 - swimgod - Wed Jun 21, 2006 1:59 am

has anyone got these working together?
i have been having problems getting it to compile,
i get this error
Code:

arm-eabi-gcc -MMD -MP -MF /d/devkitPro/examples/nds/input/TouchTest/build/main.d -g -Wall -O2 -mcpu=arm9tdmi -mtune=arm9tdmi -fomit-frame-pointer -ffast-math -mthumb -mthumb-interwork -I/d/devkitPro/examples/nds/input/TouchTest/include -I/d/devkitPro/examples/nds/input/TouchTest/build -I/d/devkitPro/libnds/include -I/d/devkitPro/libnds/include -I/d/devkitPro/examples/nds/input/TouchTest/build -DARM9 -c /d/devkitPro/examples/nds/input/TouchTest/source/main.c -o main.o
arm-eabi-gcc.exe: CreateProcess: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [main.o] Error 1
"make": *** [build] Error 2


what is wrong?

(btw, incase people are wondering... Vista has been released under public beta and is free to download off microsoft.com...)

Vista is wrong.

When I had vista insalled, I couldn't compile, or WMB.

Get back to XP :)

WMB could be because of the new driver structure (not in kernel anymore).

But I find vista kinda good, especially since it is still Beta ;).

But i think the problem has something to do with a other way of creating threads or running programs from other programs (according to the CreateProcess error). So I think the Devkit peeps should make Devkit Vista ready.

I remember fixing it by copying c:\devkitPro\devkitARM\bin folder to somewhere... I also remember WntrMute saying it's wrong, but hey - it worked!

Vista is a beta.

The Vista people need to make Vista devkitPro ready :P

Sounds like it's a path problem somewhere but you haven't given sufficient detail to determine what it might be.

Personally I'm still using win2k pro for my dev machine and it's unlikely that I'll install Vista in the near future.

When Vista comes, i will leave windows...
I have heard about some plans Microshit has...
Its clear that they are against opensource scene.
So even when u get devkit compiling on that platform,
they are still against US. So i dont see a reason to support them anymore.(i never did)

So will I, if not before. I'm getting a mac mini, with the Intel Duo core system. By doing this, I can keep Windows XP ( just in case ^^; ), and have the Mac OS X, which is -definetly- not against the opensource scene

They dropped many of this plans.

I will continue using Windows. Hm maybe I'm switching to Mac, but not to Linux.

Linux is my very favorite OS. I've used it for a year. But then it crashed my HD twice. Lost some worthy data I couldn't recover. I would use Linux, if it hadn't done the same thing a second time. And oh, it crashed two different HDs, so it wasn't about the HD.

1st: They wanted that only patented software can be run, which would have killed all windows freeware, not to mention open source for win. Old programs (pre-vista) would all have been non-patented, thus not working.
2nd: They wanted to bind the OS to the hardware, so that when changes on the hardware are done, you aren't possible to boot any more. They still plan use hardware checksums of a kind, but it's not that mighty anymore.

(The above information might partually or completely be wrong. Read the whole story on http://www.againsttcpa.com/index.shtml)

I came close to self-destruction trying to get this working. I posted a solution here: http://forum.gbadev.org/viewtopic.php?t=11901

Hope this helps,

Gary
