environment variable not working

[jontte75]

Hello, Environment variable(s) defined in debug-configuration doesn't seem to be handled by gtest-adapter? The variable seems to be handled OK by debugger, since unittest starts fine if pressing "debug" in test explorer. But if pressing refresh (to get the list of cases), running the unittest fails, because of missing environment variable (LD_LIBRARY_PATH).

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04

Hi, Thanks for reporting on this issue. This is indeed a bug I hadn't thought of. It is now fixed in version 1.0.6

Hi, Thanks for quick answer and fix. It still doesn't seem to work though. Could it be that launch.json environment variable is in format:

            "environment": [{
                "name": "LD_LIBRARY_PATH",
                "value": "/path/to/some/lib/:/path/to/some/other/lib/"
            }],

but execSync takes env as key-value-pairs or something like that?

Hardcoded the LD_LIBRARY_PATH like this:

            var productionEnv = Object.create(process.env);
            productionEnv.LD_LIBRARY_PATH = '/some/path/lib/';
            var results = child_process_1.execSync(config.program + '  --gtest_list_tests', { encoding: "utf8", env: productionEnv })
                .split(/[\r\n]+/g);

And with that, the list-tests worked fine.

I have though very little experience in node.js and javascript, so I might be very wrong :-)

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I believe that it is fixed now. However, I don't have a Ubuntu set up, at hand. Please let me know if you encounter further issues.
