Feature request: Variable substitution
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I would like to set up C/C++ IntelliSense with includes and defines for MEX files for the correct MATLAB installation.
Maybe even the configured compiler for MEX (the one from mex -setup
).
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to use something like ${command:matlab.getMatlabRoot}
within settings.json
and c_cpp_properties.json
.

Describe alternatives you've considered Not really, maybe environment variables? The MATLAB extension could also provide a C/C++ configuration similar to CMake Tools, but i'm not sure how it does that. (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/configure-intellisense)
Additional context Again, CMake Tools provides really convenient variable substitution features.
