API for getting the path to the current *.code-workspace file

[fabiospampinato]

I maintain the Projects+ extension, used for switching between projects quickly.

I would like to add support for saving the current multi-root project in the extension configuration.

I could do this by saving the paths to all the roots and then opening a new window with them in it, like this basically, but this way workspace-specific settings are basically discarded because this will be considered a new workspace.

I could ask my users to manually write the path to their *.code-workspace files into the extension configuration, but this can be tedious and it should be automated.

If there was an API for retrieving the path to the current *.code-workspace file I could implement this thing optimally. Can we have one?

A similar extension to mine, Project Manager, is amongst the most downloaded in the whole marketplace, and it could benefit from this too. (/cc @alefragnani)

Hi @fabiospampinato ,

Thanks for being another vote on this request 😄 .

I have already requested this on #35407 (comment), and then it was extracted by @bpasero to #37421. Last week I asked about any news on this, and I was waiting for some news.

I just remembered that Microsoft Build event is happening right now, and I understand the team being busy working/supporting that, because I see VS Code as one of the most important products at the moment. It's being used in a bunch of MS presentations/videos/tutorials.

Looking forward for this

Nice, closing as duplicate of #37421 then, thanks for your message.
