Vscode-cmake-tools: cant specify cmake lists in cmake.configureSettings

[xzcvczx]

Brief Issue Summary

when using -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATHS you use a semi-colon as a path separator, it seems that

"cmake.configureSettings": {
  CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH: "/path/to/a;/path/to/b"
}

is not handled correctly by cmake tools the only way i could find to make it work was to use -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=... in configureArgs, i also found that i couldn't get -L to work in configureArgs.

Apparent Behavior:

it seems the ; is being handled incorrectly, i also tried using "\"path1;path2\""

Hello! Sorry for the delay.

Try passing as a JSON list like so:

"cmake.configureSettings": {
  "CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH": [
    "/path/to/a",
    "/path/to/b"
  ]
}
