hello_sensor project - compiling and download in VM virtualbox with eclipse.

Did you use the installer to install the SDK in the Linux VM? The problem here is:

/home/applcommon-dev/git/meher/cooking-bcm/make.exe


which is not a valid Linux executable. The installer would have set this up correctly for Linux. Did you copy the SDK folder from a Windows install? The .cproject file in the SDK is OS and path sensitive. Close the IDE, open <SDK>/.cproject in a text editor and replace all 'make.exe' with 'make' (no quotes).


I would recommend always using the installer for OS on which you plan to use the SDK.

Hello meherkollipara,

We have not tested VM virtual box.

However, we have had VM Ware success.

Is your host OS Linux and guest OS Win 7?
