VSCode workspace not being parsed correctly for Nim suggest

[pr-yemibedu]

Hello,
Looking at line NimUtil Line 51 I see that the toLocalFile function is suppose to do a merge of workspace and filepath. This is causing an error that the project root folder name is being counted twice. NimSuggest is failing because of this.

With base folder add being put in a workspace this is what happens:

• Expected result : e:\projects\nim\add\src\add.nim
• Given result : e:\projects\nim\add\add\src\add.nim

The exact error message: "console.ts:136 [Extension Host] Nimsuggest returns unknown port number: cannot find file: e:\projects\nim\add\add\src\add.nim"

There should be another check inside that if the final path is not valid to return something else or report an error. Thank you. Good day.

@pr-yemibedu I cant reproduce this behavior, could You please provide example project?

Hello,
I have put together my problem project that shows my issue (C zip) and a new one without the issue (N zip). They have a workspace over a lib and a bin. opening just the lib in VSCode will provide type information after a few seconds.

• c.zip and n.zip

The workspace of C never gets passed the Indexing: # state. Not sure what the cause would be as the only difference is an additional ".workspace" file at the root. Thank you. Good day.

I have this issue too, as soon as I went from just opening a single folder to using a workspace with multiple folders.

This is causing an error that the project root folder name is being counted twice.

Or put another way, it seems that it's taking the first project directory in the workspace and prepending it to all of them.

For example, say I have two project directories (projA and projB) in the same workspace.
Correct paths:
c:\repos\projA\file.nim
c:\repos\projB\file.nim

For the first project I get: cannot find file: c:\repos\projA\projA\file.nim
For the second project I get: cannot find file: c:\repos\projA\projB\file.nim

Unfortunately this means nimsuggest doesn't work with workspaces.
