klaus Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 10, 2012 #2 That seems estonishing long to me, there must be something special or strange in your program. You need to give more information. What part of the compiling process is taking that long ? When you compile 'normally' (the Run button in the IDE) you will see the different steps of the compiling process with the time needed to do it. What kind of application is it ? Best regards.

klaus Expert Licensed User Longtime User Mar 10, 2012 #4 Try to change the Process Timeout value to 30 seconds or even higher. In the IDE menu Tools / IDE options / Configure Process Timeout. Best regards. Upvote 0

JonPM Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 10, 2012 #5 I notice a significant difference in compile time on my laptop vs my desktop. Is you PC on the slower end? Upvote 0

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 10, 2012 #6 You can also change to Release mode instead of Debug. It will compile faster. Another thing worth trying is Tools - Clean project and Tools - Delete unused files. Upvote 0

A alexis Member Licensed User Longtime User Mar 30, 2013 #8 I was having the same problem. Thanks! Didn't expect that the "cleaned unused files" would make such a big difference. Erel, Thanks for pointing it out. Upvote 0

Overhere that selected drop down list entry is empty, does that mean debug mode by default? Edit: apparently not, never saw that debug notification before. Last edited: Mar 30, 2013 Upvote 0
