Sharing environments globally? #9

Closed Anselmoo closed 2 years ago

Anselmoo commented 2 years ago

Is there a chance to share the dedicated environments globally between different VS-editors?

Thx

Hi! Not sure what you mean. Only one profile can be active at the same time, so if you have several VSCode instances open, once you reload them, the same profle will be applied (it comes from the fact that vscode reads extensions from the single folder). Until the reload, however, the old extensions set will remain, since it is already loaded in memory, but this situation can potentionally lead to errors so it is recommended to always reload all windows on profile change. So, one can say, environment is shared.

@cyberbiont thx for the response:

I want to know if the environment with the name RUST will be synchronized with the visual code editor on a different platform with the same name RUST and with the same definitions.

Is that already possible? Maybe I have to closer look to the gist of VS?

Yes, you can do this using SettingsSync extension. Please refer to the corresponding chapter in Readme on how to setup vscode-profles with settingssync.
