${workspaceFolder} is not working for "environmentSetupScript" option in project cmake-kits.json file

[Yaxley123]

Brief Issue Summary

As pre the documentation specifies, the "environmentSetupScript" option only accepts absolute paths. When I would like to access a setup script with ${workspaceFolder} variable, the script is neglected. If I replace the variable to hardcoded path, the setup script runs successfully. If I use the ${workspaceFolder} variable in any other option in the same file (for example in "toolchainFile"), the variable in expanded successfully.

Expected:

${workspaceFolder} and other variables are expanded successfully in the "environmentSetupScript" option in the project cmake-kits.json file.

Apparent Behavior:

If I use the ${workspaceFolder} variable, the setup script does not run. If I replace the variable with a hardcoded path, the setup script runs successfully.

CMake Tools Log

The "environmentSetupScript" option does not provide any logs, just fails.

Platform and Versions

• Operating System: Windows 10
• CMake Version: 3.12
• VSCode Version: 1.46.0
• CMake Tools Extension Version: 1.4.0
• Compiler/Toolchain: GCC + MinGW

Thank you!

This appears to have been an oversight. Tagging this for the next release.

Hi @alan-wr

I have a similar problem to the one described by @Yaxley123 and I was wondering if your fix is also going to address my problem?

I'm using the Remote-SSH extension, and in my .vscode folder on the Linux remote host I have a cmake-kits.json file that contains:

[
{
"name" : "Tegra X1 Cross Compile",
"toolchainFile" : "${WorkspaceFolder}/TX1_toolchain.cmake"
}
]

This is the output I get at start-up:

[variant] Loaded new set of variants

I guess I'm asking whether I need to file a separate bug report, or whether your change will address this.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,

Peter.

Hi Peter,

The extension support workspaceFolder variable on kit's property toolchain file.

I see you use WorkspaceFolder, it should be workspaceFolder. ( The first char 'W' is a lowercase letter.)

I test it on local host, it is fine.

If there exists problem still, you can ping me.

[amazingmo]

I took out the ${WorkspaceFolder} variable and I can see that the toolchain file value is just being passed directly to CMake's -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE.
I'm assuming that this is the expected behaviour?

Predefined variables#
The following predefined variables are supported:

${workspaceFolder} - the path of the folder opened in VS Code
${workspaceFolderBasename} - the name of the folder opened in VS Code without any slashes (/)
${file} - the current opened file
${relativeFile} - the current opened file relative to workspaceFolder
${relativeFileDirname} - the current opened file's dirname relative to workspaceFolder
${fileBasename} - the current opened file's basename
${fileBasenameNoExtension} - the current opened file's basename with no file extension
${fileDirname} - the current opened file's dirname
${fileExtname} - the current opened file's extension
${cwd} - the task runner's current working directory on startup
${lineNumber} - the current selected line number in the active file
${selectedText} - the current selected text in the active file
${execPath} - the path to the running VS Code executable
${defaultBuildTask} - the name of the default build task

@alan-wr Thank you. I see it now.

Hi Peter,

You are welcome.

This should be fixed in CMake Tools 1.5.0 which was published today.
Let us know if you encounter any issues with this release.
