Build task fails for paths containing spaces #37

Opening a new issue instead of appending onto the other one.

Terminal will be reused by tasks, press any key to close it.

Basically, my understanding is that the extension can't run the Build task because it has a space in it. Look how the errors reported are split on the space between "Fall" and "2021" (originally a folder "Fall 2021").

I'm guessing surrounding the paths with quotes would fix this, but you'd know more.

Yes, I could just rename the folder and see if it works but maybe you'd like to know of this being possible.

Thanks for the quick fix though on #35 though.

Hi, yes i can add this "feature". Nevertheless from a C/C++ programmers perspective you shouldnt have spaces in the path. Many UNIX like tools don't like this.

franneck94 commented 2 years ago

I will update the build and run function for paths with spaces. The debugging however will not work on every system, since gdb can't cope with whitespaces on Unix like systems.
