Build system / Compiler hangs?

Hi all,

I have written around 10 000 lines of code for mbed LPC4088 in my science project.

Code it self is 100 % ok and tested operational.

I can compile with around 5000 lines of this code, but with full code I get the following error message:

"The build system is under heavy load right now. Compiles may take longer than usual." "The build system did not finish succesfully." "Unable to download. Fix reported errors..."

Is there any way around this?

It doesn't matter which 5000 lines of code I try to compile, it will pass. It seems like there is some kind of time out operation cutting off the building/compiling operation of my code, when I have it with 10 000 lines. I can not reduce my code size, every line is essential for the project.

If you're not happy to wait you might be able to export and compile it locally:

Works fine on IAR embedded workbench version 7.5. I found other offline compilers very difficult to set up. Also IAR embedded work bench versions earlier than this one provided me with error messages on file transfer.

"The build system is under heavy load right now. Compiles may take longer than usual."

A lot of people are making requests so the build system is struggling to keep up I assume. This has happened to be every day this week from around 3pm (BST), It's nothing to do with your code, I think it's just mbed being busy at this time of day.
