Can't update boards.txt #268

Closed TheByteAttic closed 1 year ago

TheByteAttic commented 1 year ago

Since updating the Arduino IDE to v2.0.4, whatever I change in the file boards.txt (such as changing the fuse values or even the menu item's name) is ignored. I've tried to do it both in my sketchbook folder: C:\Users\MyName\OneDrive\Documents\Arduino\hardware\MightyCore-master\avr\boards.txt as well as in the installation folder: C:\Users\MyName\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\MightyCore\hardware\avr\2.2.1\boards.txt Whatever I edit in either of these files is ignored when I open the IDE. I already tried reinstalling the MightyCore library and no cigar. Do you recognize the issue?

Issue solved by installing older version 2.1.3 of MightyCore.

IIRC the IDE 2.0 still has an issue where the tools menu option for a "Manually installed" core doesn't appear. That's why using the boards manager for installation is recommended. It also downloads all the assets like Avrdude 7.1, but with a manual install, this has to be handled manually.

However, I have no issues editing the boards.txt found in the installation folder on my computer: (/Users/hans/Library/Arduino15/packages/MightyCore/hardware/avr/2.2.1/boards.txt)

I think the issue can be closed.
