This morning, the command line tools of CW for MCU 10.6.4 started giving this exact same error code. At first glance I thought something changed in my Windows installation to disturb Make, but I noticed that even calling the compiler binary without any arguments gives the same error. It does not print anything to stdout, regardless of any command line arguments.
C:\>"C:\Freescale\CW MCU v10.6.4\MCU\PA_Tools\Command_Line_Tools\mwcceppc.exe"
C:\>echo %ERRORLEVEL%
-1073741811
Any ideas to fix this? Maybe this is related to license manager?
EDIT: Reinstalling Codewarrior does not fix the problem. Also, at least in my case mwcceppc.exe is broken but mwasmeppc and mwldeppc do seem to work:
C:\>"c:\Freescale\CW MCU v10.6.4\MCU\PA_Tools\Command_Line_Tools\mwasmeppc.exe"
