Issue Details

I tried this tutorial Getting Started with C/C++ Development Tools for NI Linux Real-Time, Eclipse Edition and when I compiled my project I have this error :
09:40:35 **** Rebuild of configuration Debug for project test ****

How do I fix that ?
 

Solution

In the error message, we can see the PATH : 
PATH=[C:\Windows\system32\ C:\build\17.0\arm\sysroots\i686-nilrtsdk-mingw32\usr\bin\arm-nilrt-linux-gnueabi;C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jre1.8.0_181/bin/client;C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jre1.8.0_181/bin;C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jre1.8.0_181/lib/i386;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\iCLS\;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine 

To fix the error you have to add a semicolon between C:\Windows\system32\ and C:\build\17.0\arm\sysroots\i686-nilrtsdk-mingw32\usr\bin\arm-nilrt-linux-gnueabi, please see below (Highlighted in red): 
PATH=[C:\Windows\system32\;C:\build\17.0\arm\sysroots\i686-nilrtsdk-mingw32\usr\bin\arm-nilrt-linux-gnueabi;C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jre1.8.0_181/bin/client;C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jre1.8.0_181/bin;C:/Program Files (x86)/Java/jre1.8.0_181/lib/i386;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\iCLS\;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine 


You can modify it manually :
  1. project>Properties
  2. In the windows select C/C++Build>Environnement
  3. Edit PATH and add the semicolon
  4. Compile your project again and the error should have disappeared
