Has anyone on here experience the v2,3,8 IDE won't compile?
I just updated to this version yesterday and now it won't compile or upload my sketch, so I tried a bare bones new script with the same results. It just hangs there,
void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:
}
void loop() {
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
}
Please enable verbose output during compilation under file/preferences and compile.
Post the full output here using code tags; we might be able to see where the process hangs.
Have not heard of that. How long do you wait? Check the entire screen; there are some messages in small fonts for some activities. Since the internet CAN be involved, especially the first time, make sure you have a fast connection. Most importantly, how long did you wait?
Perhaps IDE is still updating (many files)? I have a slow computer that sometimes needs to give the IDE time and a restart before being useful. Restart the IDE, wait fifteen minutes, restart IDE again and try uploading minimal.ino again.
Would you copy/paste the IDE Console Output window here? Also, after you start the upload or verify, get a screen-shot of the IDE and post it here to look for other indicators.
