Why is MQX4.2 not compiling in Windows?

I'm trying to build the "hello" example for the FRDMK64F board but I'm getting this:

PS C:\Freescale\mqx4.2\mqx\examples\hello\build\make\hello_frdmk64f> .\build_gcc_arm.bat
mingw32-make: *** INTERNAL: readdir: No such file or directory
. Stop.

But I'm not sure why. I have configured the TOOLCHAIN like this in the global.mak file:

ifeq ($(TOOL),gcc_arm) GCC_VERSION ?=10.2.1 TOOLCHAIN_ROOTDIR = C:/nxp/MCUXpressoIDE_11.4.0_6237/ide/tools endif

What am I missing?

Hi @m4l490n :

From the release note, the development tools for MQX 4.2 is :

...

MCUXpresso IDE is not in the list.

MQX v5 can support MCUXpresso IDE.

Daniel

@danielchen thanks for helping.

I'm not trying to compile MQX4.2 using MCUXpresso IDE, only trying to compile it using the arm-none-eabi-gcc version that gets installed by MCUXpresso IDE which by the way I can totally do in Linux by having this configuration in global.mak:

ifeq ($(TOOL),gcc_arm) GCC_VERSION=10.2.1 TOOLCHAIN_ROOTDIR = /usr/local/mcuxpressoide-11.4.0_6237/ide/tools endif

So I know this shall work, but my problem is that it doesn't work on windows and I don't know why.

Hey! And what kind of Windows do you have? I am a work time developer, maybe I can help. We faced such a situation.

@Huey1 thanks for jumping in!

I'm on windows 10 enterprise Version 21H1

Just so you know, I'm getting this when running mingw32-make --version

GNU Make 3.82.90

And this from running which mingw32-make

/c/MinGW/bin/mingw32-make

So the program is definitely on my system. I just don't know what else does stupid windows wants.
