Re: [cdt-dev] More fixes for env vars on launch for msys2
I don't think it would be accurate to say CDT would be Linux only without this change. CDT supports MinGW through the MBS. I assume this change was to help setting up PATH for users? People using MinGW/MSYS have been setting the PATH variable manually for a very long time, so there's at least a way to make it work. Of course, it's always nice to make things easier and out-of-the-box for users. In any case, I just thought I'd clarify this statement about CDT being Linux only without this change.

Our entire MSYS2 story doesn't work without this change. If we want CDT to be Linux only, I guess we can wait. Not sure that's wise though.

Hi,

I'm not familiar with the workings of ICdtVariableManager.resolveValue() so I don't know the impact of this change.
Could calling this make existing debug launches in the wild fail?
What is the impact of this bug?

I personally don't feel RC4 is the appropriate time for this.  Can't it wait for 9.1?

Hey gang,

I'm not sure how my first fix worked. At any rate, found some more weirdness that prevented launching with the MSYS2 toolchain from working. I'd love someone from debug land to take a look at this and make sure I'm not crazy.


Thanks,
Doug
