Can you please not try to enumerate serial ports every time the extension loads?

and have you...

• I updated to the latest spin2 version available
• I have restarted VSCode and the problem still exists

Version of Spin2 Language Server VScode Extension with the issue

yes

Is this a regression?

Yes. This used to work, but now it doesn't.

Hardware, Operating System, Operating System version, VSCode version

The usual, Linux, etc

Description of problem

It's very annoying. I'm not even using the feature this enables, I always load from the CLI. Also it will apparently write whatever port it finds into the project-level settings.json. Please stop. Extensions that automatically edit settings.json / adjacent files in my project directories get THE WALL.

Additional information

No response

Geez, I thought I hid all of this behind the enable for the build system. I'll get this updated today/tomorrow.

Thanks for reporting this!

FYI- I used what was available for storage of this information. Would you have other suggestions for where to store this in the current project?

Ideally you wouldn't write to the config automatically. The average user doesn't have any particular permanent port mapping, so the port may change from run to run anyways. In most cases beyond that, it's really a per-user setting - it really shouldn't be in the project files you may share / version control. Only when someone has multiple P2 boards hooked up at once would you need a per-project setting.
