C/C++.log for writing: Operation timed out

[dnicolson]

Type: General

When running npm test there are strange errors caused by the C/C++ extension.

Describe the bug

• OS and Version: macOS 10.14.5 (18F132)
• VS Code Version: 1.34.0
• C/C++ Extension Version: 0.23.1

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Run yo code with default options
2. Run npm test

Expected behavior
The C/C++ extension not to log anything. After the test output the following appears:
Error: Failed opening file [path]/output_logging_20190531T195912/5-C/C++.log for writing: Operation timed out.

Disabling the extension does not prevent the error, the extension must be uninstalled.

This is bug microsoft/vscode#73441 -- fixed with the latest VS Code Insiders.

But that error shouldn't repro if the C/C++ extension is disabled (it seems like the disabling might not be working for you?).

It looked unique as the filename and error message is different.

[sean-mcmanus]

The log in microsoft/vscode#73441 has "Diagnostics" at the end because it's from the C/C++: Log Diagnostics command, but the same root issue occurs for the normal C/C++ output window (log).

The other error message differences might be due to the OS being used (my error is from Windows).

Let us (or the VS Code team) know if the bug still repros with Insiders...it could be another spot in VS Code hitting the same issue with parsing "C/C++" incorrectly.
