Trusted Firmware M build error on Windows 10 - TF-M

31 Oct 2022


      Hello,
I'm trying to build the Trusted Firmware M on Win10 x64 for NXP LPC55S69 using the IAR compiler, but I get the following error:
[ 76%] Building C object secure_fw/CMakeFiles/tfm_s.dir/__/platform/ext/target/nxp/lpcxpresso55s69/Device/Source/startup_lpcxpresso55s69.o

In the attachment, you can find the full build log and also the CMake build file generation log.
Some details about my setup:
Win10 Enterprise x64. Version 20H2
IAR ANSI C/C++ Compiler V8.50.9.278/W32 for ARM
GNU Make 3.81
git version 2.36.0.windows.1
CMake 3.24.2
Python 3.10.5
I followed the steps from the Getting started guide herehttps://tf-m-user-guide.trustedfirmware.org/getting_started/index.html than the steps to build the framework for LPC55S69 herehttps://tf-m-user-guide.trustedfirmware.org/platform/nxp/lpcxpresso55s69/README.html.
Do you have any idea what I'm missing?
In case you need any further information let me please know.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Ildikó Pocsai
