Vscode-code-runner: Customized parameters for folder path of .code-workspace file

[woigl]

There is the following configuration variable:
$workspaceRoot: The path of the folder opened in VS Code

It is actually refering to the parent folder of the extecuted script instead of pointing to the root of the workspace in which the workspace file is residing.

Is there a variable or can there be a variable introduced pointing to the the folder in which the workspace file resides?

It is really The path of the folder opened in VS Code: https://github.com/formulahendry/vscode-code-runner/blob/9ce19bfed2e0c53d4a9da26ae3d4eb5239a1f878/src/codeManager.ts#L352

Could you share more details, so that I could repro the issue from my side?

[woigl]

Yes, that is correct. The value of the variable is according to the description, but the name of the variable is misleading. The name "workspaceRoot" would tell me that it points to the root folder of my workspace (I assume the folder that contains my workspace file.

Anyway, is there a possibility that you introduce another variable, which is actually really pointing to the workspace root (the folder that my workspace file is located)?

Are you working on multi-root workspaces.? Do you mean the .code-workspace?

[woigl]

Yes, I've added multiple folders to a .code-workspace.

So, your requirement is: having a variable that points to the folder of .code-workspace?

[woigl]

Exactly 😄
