Describe the bug:
When the iar: Open Workspace in IAR Embedded Workbench task is used, it opens the workbench and keeps running as long as IAR is kept open.
To Reproduce:
Press Ctrl + P, enter task iar, open the iar group, and choose iar: Open Workspace in IAR Embedded Workbench.
Expected behavior:
IAR EWB is started and the task finishes successfully immediately.
Actual behavior:
IAR EWB is started and the task only finishes successfully when IAR is closed.
Environment:
OS: Windows
Embedded Workbench: Arm
Embedded Workbench version: 8.40
VSC Extension version: v1.30.6
Additional context:
Since in some contexts it may actually be reasonable to wait until IAR is closed, it would be nice to have the waiting as a configurable option.
You are right, the default behaviour should be for the task to finish immediately. I've filed a bug report internally, but I can't promise any timeline on when we'll get to it.
