error: No such file or directory on Windows 10

Extension Info: Name: Octave Debugger Id: paulosilva.vsc-octave-debugger Description: Debug Octave and Matlab code in Visual Studio Code. Version: 0.4.7 Publisher: Paulo Silva VS Marketplace Link: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=paulosilva.vsc-octave-debugger

Octave Info: I have installed GNU Octave in E:\Octave-6.1.0 directory. octave-cli resides in E:\Octave-6.1.0\mingw64\bin. I wrote a simple Hello World Script and named it "myscript.m" inside my folder: D:\Harsh\Study\Sem4\ITW-2.

Issue: Every time I run the script using the debugger, it gives a warning and an error in Debug Console, that is as follows:

warning: addpath: D:HarshStudySem4ITW-2: No such file or directory
error: D:HarshStudySem4ITW-2: No such file or directory
Runtime: octave-cli exited with code: 1

Configuration: My launch.json is configured as:

{
    // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
    // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
    // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "type": "OctaveDebugger",
            "request": "launch",
            "name": "Run Octave",
            "program": "${fileBasename}",
            "octave": "octave-cli",
            "sourceFolder": "${workspaceFolder}",
            "autoTerminate": true
        }
    ]
}

Clearly, backslashes from path are removed; D:\Harsh\Study\Sem4\ITW-2 becomes D:HarshStudySem4ITW-2.

I need help regarding this. I am still very very new to octave. Please assist.

I confirm octave is in my path and running octave myscript.m from command prompt works just fine.

I have the same problem on Windows 10. I tried the combinations //, \/, / and \. Just going back to version 0.4.6 helped.

Sorry. I broke the plugin in the last commit. I didn't test it on windows. The new version v0.4.8 should be up at any moment and should fix this. Let me know if it works for you guys.

Perfekt! Works like expected!

Great. I'll close the bug now. Thanks for posting.
