Plugin can not find the project file location: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat

[dudamao]

Describe the bug: Hey friends in IAR, I encountered a path recognition issue while using this plugin. Although a project file exists in the folder, the plugin indicates that it cannot find the file. I suspect a possible cause is that the plugin automatically adds spaces when recognizing the path.

file path: C:\main\dev\MCAL_Motor\iar\iar_v850\E3_ref_gateway_E3640

error: Could not parse project file 'c:\main\dev\MCAL_Motor\iar\iar_v850\E3_ref_gateway_E3640\E3_ref_gateway_E3640.ewp ': ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat 'c:\main\dev\MCAL_Motor\iar\iar_v850\E3_ref_gateway_E3640\E3_ref_gateway_E3640.ewp '

To Reproduce: using a VSCode Workspace include project folder can reproduce this issue.

Environment:

• OS: [Windows, linux]
• Embedded Workbench: Arm
• Embedded Workbench version: 8.50.6
• VSC Extension version: v1.30.6

Hi,

Could you please check your workspace file (E3_ref_gateway_E3640.eww) to see whether there might be a space at the end of the project path, as in this example:

The extension reads the path directly from the .eww file, so a space at the end would cause the error you described. Note that the Embedded Workbench IDE is able to find the right file even with a space at the end of the path, which would explain why you're only seeing this error in VS Code.

Hi Hampus, Thank you very much for your explanation. This was exactly my issue, and after modifying the .eww file, my problem was solved. I hope that in future plugin updates, this suggestion can be added to the error message.
