some python.terminal settings are now ignored #25332
Description
Type: Bug
Behaviour
Some settings set by python.terminal.XXX seem ignored. This includes:
"python.terminal.executeInFileDir": true,
"python.terminal.launchArgs": [
"-i"
]
On a side note, this also does not launch the deb ugger in the file current directory anymore:
"launch": {
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"name": "Python: Current File",
"type": "debugpy",
"request": "launch",
"program": "${file}",
"console": "integratedTerminal",
"justMyCode": true,
"cwd": "${fileDirname}"
}
]
Steps to reproduce:
Set the upper mentionned settings at the user level, and run python by clikcing on the "Run Python file" button at the top right.
