Hi!

When compiling firmware examples or own firmware with the provided Yagarto tool chain ("make" command), you might encounter problems under Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. These can be:
  • One or several application error windows pop up describing a problem with rm.exe or other executable tools.
  • The make process terminates abnormally with text chunks like:
    • "No such file or directory"
    • "Resource temporarily unavailable"
    • "compilation terminated"
    • "make: *** [file.name] Error xy"
Cause:
The msys-1.0.dll being part of the Yagarto Tools is not working correctly under Windows 8.1. and Windows 10

Solution:
Replace the msys-1.0.dll in the Yagarto Tools directory with the one from the ZIP file that is appended to this post. In detail:
  1. Locate the existing file msys-1.0.dll. By default it is residing in the following Tools directory (if not changed during Yagarto Tools installation):
    C:\yagarto-tools-20121018\bin
  2. Rename the existing DLL in order to have a backup:
    Current name: msys-1.0.dll (date: 2006-07-06)
    Backup name: msys-1.0.dll.bak
  3. Copy the DLL from the ZIP file to the Tools directory you've located above.
    New file: msys-1.0.dll (date: 2016-07-13)
