Milestone
An issue I noticed while doing the work behind #303 and #304: we don't always have a unified way of specifying certain values that are common throughout the whole project.
In my case, I found the NW.js version was specified in
gulpfile.js
, but I needed to use it inlaunch.json
. I ended up just manually updating the latter to match the former, since neither of these files appear to have any way of pulling the desired value from, e.g. another file. I think the closestlaunch.json
has is command input variables, which only solves the problem if we can write a script to do the job, and that's hard to do in a cross-platform manner.Do any of our existing tools have a preprocessor or something that can handle this kind of nonsense at some stage in the development cycle? It'd be nice if, the same way we use the
${workspaceFolder}
macro, we could just pull any variable we want from wherever.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
