${config:<name>} variables fail to resolve in multi-root workspace launch configurations. #97202
Description
Issue Type: Bug
When I try to use ${confg:<name>} variables in multi-root workspace launch configurations, they fail to resolve with error:
'${config:<name>}' can not be resolved in a multi folder workspace. Scope this variable using ':' and a workspace folder name.
This is not right, as there is no way to scope config variables with workspace folder names.
Minimal example, launching the configuration Launch Program will fail to resolve the config variable:
Hierarchy:
Desktop:
test1
test2
test.code-workspace
test.code-workspace:
{
"folders": [
{
"path": "./test1"
},
{
"path": "./test2"
}
],
"launch": {
"configurations": [
{
"name": "Launch Program",
"type": "node",
"request": "launch",
"program": "${config:editor.fontSize}"
}
]
}
}
