Anyone experience this at all? arm-none-eabi-g++ gets stuck in a permanent loop trying to build main.cpp but works for other .cpp files. There are no errors or any information on what is going on.

Probably a question the toolchain dvelopment team needs to answer.

Some issues with include files, perhaps a circular include ?

Can't be because Keil compiles the same code just fine. Also if I empty the main.cpp to just a simple main function with no includes it still gets stuck on it. I manually updated the toolchain by overriding the one that comes with the IDE with the q3 ARM toolchain and still nothing.

If possible you can try armclang, it usually provides more detailed error messaging.

Otherwise, add the verbose output flag to the compile command.

There was a known issue on this point when installation is done into a location containing spaces, such as C:\Program Files.

Anyway it is marked as solved with 1.0.2, make sure you well updated to this version.
