One goal of ours is to provide a more GNU/embedded development friendly extension for VS Code that is developed fully in the open. Many VS Code users are using (and struggling with) Microsoft's extension for C++, cpptools.
To help those users migrate to CDT's extension, we should strive to make it easy to convert launches. In theory, it should be a simple as changing the launch type. We should strive to use the same arguments.
First, find out what the cpptools launch settings are. Then plan how to support them.
