Problem:
VSCode cannot find files because the path is incorrect. I believe this is because I am using a mac as a client debugger with the host being a windows IIS server.

/Users/hackmodford/Code/PHPStorm Projects/ma-mobile-webservice/routes\Inventory.php (incorrect path in message)
/Users/hackmodford/Code/PHPStorm Projects/ma-mobile-webservice/routes/Inventory.php (path of file in vscode)
/Users/hackmodford/Code/PHPStorm Projects/ma-mobile-webservice/routes/Inventory.php (path in FS)

Looks like the paths.ts needs to be fixed to address this.

This seems to be related to #216

Adding this to line 48 of paths.ts solves the problem for me. However, I am no typescript expert, so I imagine there is a better solution?

if (serverIsWindows && !isWindowsUri(localPath)) {
        //Change all the backslashes to forward slashes.
        let re = /\\/gi;
        localPath = localPath.replace(re, "/");
}
