I believe this is working. I put together a small test project to attempt to recreate your problem.
With a feature file containing: `'' Scenario: TestingStepArgConverter Given a myclass of {myv} ''' and a binding class of:
'''csharp
[Binding]
public class SF2502StepArgumentTransformsUsingCurlyBraces
{
[StepArgumentTransformation(@"^(\{[a-z A-Z]+\})$")]
public MyClass ConvertToMyClass(string v)
{
return new MyClass(v);
}
[Given(@"^a myclass of (.*)$")]
public void TestMyClass(MyClass x)
{
x.v.Should().Be("{myv}");
}
}
public class MyClass
{
public string v;
public MyClass(string v)
{
this.v = v;
}
}
''' In order to get this to work, I added a set of parenthesis around the curly braces in order to tell the regex to capture the entire string - that then becomes the string argument passed to the StepArgumentTransformation method (in this example: ConvertToMyClass() ).
Were you able to work around your problem? Can this bug/issue be closed?

Issue Description
Part of my scenario contains a step like this one
This in a sentence with { my tag }
.my tag
is a parameter of the step bind to a custom type. I wrote a transform for this custom type where the regex pattern is(^\{[a-z A-Z]+\}$)
It seems that SpecFlow removes thes curly braces while parsing the step. My transform is then never called. I tried with some characters other than alpha numeric characters with no success.
Is there any reason the curly braces are removed after parsing ?
Steps to Reproduce
Create a parameterized step where the parameter in the sentence is wrapped within curly braces.
