LCD-15890 - 5 minute + compile time for examples with Artemis Board

I am using an Artmemis Nano with the LCD-15890 Zio Qwiic 1.5" display.

The examples compile, and work, the problem is that it takes over 5 minutes to compile the simple Hello World example.

Other programs (Blink etc), only take the few seconds to compile, as one would normally expect.

Is there any reason for this, and can anything be done to speed it up.

Thanks

Hmmm…are you using the library here https://www.smart-prototyping.com/blog/ … /#overview ?

It might be an incompatibility issue where the Artemis bootloader is struggling? You could try switching it to the Ambiq one https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/ar … mis-module (though note you need to ensure the serial window is CLOSED @ upload time)

Hmm, I thought I replied to this yesterday, but don’t see my entry.

I found that the compile time is 5+ minutes for the first time compiling, and then in the same IDE window, the compile times are a more reasonable 30 seconds or so.

The Library has a lot of files, and I am sure the issue is that it takes time to compile the 100+ small files that are present.

I believe if the library were to be precompiled into a “.a” file, it wouild be much faster, but I have never done that, and I am not sure the best way to do it.
