Cannot compile, hang on step "generating LD script"

Development Platforms

Trying to build my first proejct using mbed -os, but while compiling a simple blink project for the first time the compiler stops at a point where it is generating LD script and it is stuck there forever. Any ideas?

What exact platformio.ini are you using?

Is there any antivirus active that could interfer?

Hello,

Thank you for your answer.
I disabled antivirus real time protection and the problem persists.

The platformio.ini file is exactly as it was generted when the project was created, see below.

[env:hexiwear]
platform = freescalekinetis
board = hexiwear
framework = mbed

I can’t reproduce the issue on my computer. A newly created project for the Hexiwear and pressing the build button gives me

Try and update all versions first. Open a CLI and execute

pio upgrade --dev
pio platform update freescalekinetis

then restart VSCode, execute the project task “Clean” and retry building.

If that doesn’t fix the issue, it must be something external to PlatformIO.

Hello,

I followed your steps, and it did not solve the issue.
Then I decided to create a new project from scratch, and it compiled ok.
Something was probably wrong with the other project

Thanks
