This removes the
dotnet.dotnetPath
option and adds support for migrating it to the replacement setting (defined by the .NET install tool).Resolves C# side of microsoft/vscode-dotnettools#1243
Prior to this change, both
dotnet.dotnetPath
and the .NET Install Tool'sdotnetAcquisitionExtension.existingDotnetPath
setting both could influence the runtime that the server used. It is unnecessary to support both of these options at this point, and only causes needless confusion.Here we delete
dotnet.dotnetPath
and migrate existing values todotnetAcquisitionExtension.existingDotnetPath
. This should be unnoticeable in terms of behavior. The migration is slightly more complicated than other settings asdotnet.dotnetPath
required a folder containing thedotnet
executable whereas the .NET install tool setting requires the actual executable path.OmniSharp as not yet fully migrated over to the .NET install tool for .NET discovery, so O# users of
dotnet.dotnetPath
will be migrated toomnisharp.dotnetPath
.
