I have a project with multiple environments
When I click the port switcher icon and change port, this has no effect on the port used from Upload and Monitor until I use the environment switcher to change (or re-select the same) environment.
After changing (or reselecting the same) environment, the port change takes effect
Just changing the port via the port switcher has no immediate effect.
Is this a bug?
Im on PIO 6.1.13
Did you set a fixed port in your environment?
Please show the content of your platformio.ini.
No, this is with fixed ports turned off. I only have monitor_speed specified.
Example env with the issue, some values omitted for privacy
[env:myenv]
platform = espressif32
board = esp32-wroom-32e-n16
board_build.partitions = mytable.csv
build_type = debug
framework = arduino
board_build.filesystem = littlefs
monitor_speed = 115200
monitor_filters = esp32_exception_decoder
build_flags =
-DFLAGS=here
extra_scripts =
pre:build/rename_binary.py
lib_deps =
libs here
lib_ldf_mode=deep
build_src_filter =
+<stuff here>
It also seems that using a port set in the port switcher, when i Upload and Monitor for a 2nd time, on the first attempt it just reconnects the monitor. When I click Upload and Monitor again it complains the task is already running, rather than killing the old one and restarting it automatically, as happens when ive specified a port in platformio.ini
