Sloeber does not resolve {serial.port} in programmers.txt

[MiBiMiFlo]

It seems that sloebber in the recent version does not resolve {serial.port} correctly when used in programmers.txt.

I'm using DxCore from SpenceKonde to program new megaAVR MCUs. This is working fine in Arduino IDE, but seems to make issues in Sloebber. When doing an upload with python based SerialUPDI programmer, sloebber does not resolve the placeholder {serial.port} as defined in programmers.txt. The error mesasge is as follows:

Launching: C:\Temp\Sloeber\arduinoPlugin\packages\megaTinyCore\tools\python3\3.7.2-post1/python3 -u C:\Temp\Sloeber\arduinoPlugin\packages\DxCore\hardware\megaavr\1.3.10/tools/prog.py -t uart -u {serial.port} -b 230400 -d avr128db28 --fuses 5:0b11001001 7:0x00 8:0x00 -fC:\Temp\Sloeber\weiss_temp\sloeber-workspace\TestTiny\Release/TestTiny.hex -a write Output: Arduino <---> pymcuprog bridge by Quentin Bolsee and Spence Konde Version 1.1.0 - May 2021 Using serial port {serial.port} at 230400 baud.

When changing {serial.port} to ${serial.port} it is working correctly. As even in original Arduino cores the {serial.port} is used without $ I expect this is an issue with Sloebber.

The DxCore core can be found at https://github.com/SpenceKonde/DxCore

I guess this is a duplicate of #1362

you are right, sorry I searched but did not find this one.

No problem
