I am new to Zephyr trying to build some of the sample programs for a bbc_microbit.
I get the following error message from the compiler (I installed the 0.10 level of the Zephyr SDK on Windows 10 subsystem for Linux running Ubuntu 18.04 LTS).
It looks like the compiler that comers with the SDK is not working.
Any help would be much appreciated!!!!
