build issue with EDS

[Altera_Forum]

hi all, 

I built hello_world through make -f Makefile command, but it showed"arm-linux-gnueabinf-g++: error : /libpath:C:/altera/14.1/hld/host/windows64/lib/: Invalid argument", "arm-linux-gnueabinf-g++: error :alteracl.lib: no such file or directory" ......  It seems the path C:/altera/14.1/hld/host/windows64/lib/ is invalid on windows. this path seems to be modified to /cygdrive/c/altera/14.1/hld/host/windows64/lib/ ? and which file should I modify? or solve it in another way.   Thanks

If I must build host application on linux ?

I got this to compile on my windows 7 machine by making a small change to the makefile. 

 replace:  AOCL_LINK_CONFIG := $(shell aocl link-config)  with: AOCL_LINK_CONFIG := $(shell aocl link-config --arm)

Hi, 

 To let you know I had exactly the same issue, and the proposed workaround resolved the issue.

[Altera_Forum]

I is beginner in this OpenCL theme and in yesterday has download the last version of HelloWorld, install last version of Quartus Std 17.1 & SDK for OpenCL with ARM DS-5, my board is c5soc, OS Win7 Prof. 

And I see the same problem with "--arm" key in downloaded Makefile as is recommended from craueralt ! Where are trouble ? My output errors is: /libpath:D:/intelFPGA/17.1/hld/host/windows64/lib: Invalid argument OpenCL.lib: No such file or directory The command "aocl linkflags" says: /libpath:D:/intelFPGA/17.1/hld/host/windows64/lib OpenCL.lib In D:/intelFPGA/17.1/hld/host/windows64/lib I see the normal file OpenCL.lib. How repair this bug ?

A problem is in "invisible" key "--arm" for command in Makefile after "shell aocl link-config", which must return a list of ARM linker parameters instead x64. 

If manually edit Makefile, clear AOCL_LINK_CONFIG, set to LIB_DIRS list of library directories and add to LIBS all need libs, then examples is compiled and runned after successful.
