hi, love the software but i cant figure out how to fix this issue with windows version. i have 2 directories, one with marlin 2.1.2.5 and my current board definitions, the other with marlin bugfix-2.1.x and my new board configuration files because the board and pins are currently only found in that environment.
when i start VS with either directory selected, i get a message saying initialize platformio core. and then non stop messages about pio loading tasks.
on the 2.1.2.5 side i wait a few minutes and then it compiles fine. on the bugfix side, i have to wait a fair amount of time or i get a message FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘C:\Users\daven\Marlin Master Directory\Marlin-2.1.2.5\.pio\build\mega2560\.sconsign313.tmp’
i have also deleted .platformio directory in my user directory and have also tried deleting that directory and the .pio and .vscode directories in each build subdirectory with no apparent impact.
i understand that platformio has to refresh its supporting environment based on the board and pin files, but this is totally annoying. i would prefer to load all of the required stuff once for each directory so i am not sitting and waiting for unknown tasks to complete.
can anyone help me out?
