First off: does p -test work?
Yes, 2.93 seconds
You could try changing global constant showfileprogress = 0 -- show files, times, etc. on line 162 of p.exw. - try that next.
No apparent difference
Phix can get into a pickle if the auto-include info of psym.e does not match reality, re-including the same file pointlessly forever.
Sometimes running p p test shows something that p test does not (and sometimes vice versa).
One last desperate trick is to add/uncomment a trace(1) in pmain.e at the start of Compile(), run p p test, then key F6 and brew a cuppa.
You might be able to tell where it is going mental, but it is very slow, and far from always obvious.
No, these produce no discernable difference. Having tried various demos, it seems that some incliudes trigger the 'stoppage', and other programs that use includes work fine.
I'll try to pin it down more, and see if I can find a minimal 'stopper' - it could be something as simple a s file permission being changed (this is windows 7, 64), but why this might have changed within the last few weeks on this machine....
Cheers
