<p dir="ltr">Tom,</p>
<p dir="ltr">I had this problem just a few hours ago. The zero byte files are WinZip or 7zip not extracting from the tar archive correctly.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I extracted the outer archive first then the tar and it was ok with 7zip. Its not a tool chain issue.<br>

hi, all<div><br></div><div>I am now confused about the rtems tool chain for windows.</div><div><br></div><div>I read the wiki <b>MinGW Tools for Windows</b></div><div>"<a href="http://wiki.rtems.org/wiki/index.php/MinGW_Tools_for_Windows" target="_blank">http://wiki.rtems.org/wiki/index.php/MinGW_Tools_for_Windows</a>"</div>
<div>and realised that the rtems tool chain for windows does not depend MinGW and MSYS.</div><div><br></div><div>So I downloaded the tool chain of arm for MinGW from the following address</div><div><a href="http://www.rtems.org/ftp/pub/rtems/mingw32/4.11/" target="_blank">http://www.rtems.org/ftp/pub/rtems/mingw32/4.11/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>Then I extracted the bz2 files using 7z and set PATH in CLI under windows following the instructions found in the above wiki page. </div><div><br></div><div>Finally, when I tried to compile a helloworld example c file, the tool chian failed with the following complaint </div>
<div>"<b>arm-rtemseabi4.11-gcc.exe: error: CreateProcess: No such file or directory</b>". By adding the `-v' option, I found the reason is that `as' program(\opt\rtems-4.11\arm-rtemseabi4.11\bin) is an empty file.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Note that I did not install MinGW and MSYS , and no rtems bsp had been installed on that computer.</div><div><br></div><div>I did the above steps again under mingw32, and got the same result.</div><div>
<br></div><div>So is the tool chain broken ? Any sugguestion will be appreciated. thanks in advance.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>tom</div><div><br></div><div><div class="gmail_quote"><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
