We have a (undocumented) feature that allows a full command line to be provided in the
compilerPath
field ofc_cpp_properties.json
. This feature is useful for providing a command line that contains shell escaping (as shell escaping is not supported in thecompilerArgs
field. The concept of shell escaping is implicitly linked to the concept of a 'command line', and not necessarily linked to 'args'). It looks like this support has been broken for a while.This is fixed by specifying
false
toresolvePath
for bothreplaceAsterisks
andassumeRelative
.The other change is a result of formatting the document.
