Error while creating ccache for Android Rom on OSX

I am trying to use ccache to build the rom faster.

the link at http://source.android.com/source/building.html gives the following code: 

$ export USE_CCACHE=1
$ export CCACHE_DIR=/<path_of_your_choice>/.ccache
$ prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 50G

However i get the following error on line 3

$ prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 50G
-bash: prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache: cannot execute binary file

Even if i go into the directory and try to execute it by "./ccache -M 50G" it gives the same 'cannot execute binary file' error.

Can you guys tell me what am I doing wrong?

I was able to solve this problem

$ export USE_CCACHE=1

is supposed to go in your .bash_profile

After that you can give the following command and it will work.

prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 50G
