Variable substitution does not work

[jorisvanderpol]

Variable substitution in cmake-kits.json does not work properly:

{
    "name": "gcc-arm-none-eabi",
    "toolchainFile": "${workspaceFolder:BuildSystem}/toolchains/gcc-arm-none-eabi.cmake"
}

If I use ${workspaceFolder}/../BuildSystem for example, it works.

Same problem in the settings.json file:

"cmake.configureSettings": {
    "BUILDSYSTEM_DIRECTORY": "${workspaceFolder:BuildSystem}"
}

Visual Studio Code: 1.42
CMake Tools: 1.3.0

This might be addressed by PR #991. @andreeis can you check?

To clarify, this is not currently supported, but we do plan to support it in the future.

It sounds like this is resolved, based on that fixed (release pending) label. Is there an estimate for when this might be released?

[andreeis]

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.

Excellent, thank you. This seems to have fixed it for me.
