Node.js: 12.8.1

OS: Linux x64 5.3.0-46-generic snap
- OS Version:
Ubuntu Bionic 18.04Ubuntu Xenial 16.04 running on Docker instance.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Create a multi-root workspace settings file.
- Add a launch configuration object with the inputs and configurations.
- Try to lunch the configuration (debugger).
- Get an error message saying:
Undefined input variable 'variableNameHere' encountered. Remove or define 'variableNameHere' to continue.
E.g.
{
"folders": [
{
"path": "myLocalFolder"
}
],
"launch": {
"version": "0.2.0",
"inputs": [
{
"id": "myIndex",
"type": "promptString",
"default": "",
"description": "Index of something to be processed."
}
],
"configurations": [
{
"name": "MyProject (Debug)",
"type": "cppdbg",
"request": "launch",
"program": "${workspaceFolder:myLocalFolder}/myproject/bin/process",
"args": [
"-i",
"${input:myIndex}"
],
"stopAtEntry": false,
"cwd": "${workspaceFolder:myLocalFolder}",
"environment": [],
"externalConsole": false,
"preLaunchTask": "Build (MyProject)",
"linux": {
"MIMode": "gdb"
},
"osx": {
"MIMode": "lldb"
},
"windows": {
"MIMode": "gdb"
}
}
]
}
...
}Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Cannot test - working inside a docker container lunched by the docker extension.
p.s.: the inputs work just fine for tasks in multi-root workspace.
