CMakeUserPresets regression

[christophe-calmejane]

Brief Issue Summary

CMakeUserPresets is no longer working when extending an existing configure preset.
Let's take this very short example:

CMakePresets.json file:

{
	"version": 6,
	"configurePresets": [
		{
			"name": "project",
			"binaryDir": "${sourceDir}/_build_${presetName}"
		}
	]
}

and this CMakeUserPresets.json file:

{
	"version": 6,
	"configurePresets": [
		{
			"name": "user project",
			"inherits": [
				"project"
			]
		}
	]
}

When I run cmake --list-presets I correctly get:

Available configure presets:

  "user project"
  "project"

Since a recent update of vccode-cmake-tools, I don't get my user project anymore.

As a reminder, this is taken from cmake documentation:
If CMakePresets.json and CMakeUserPresets.json are both present, CMakeUserPresets.json implicitly includes CMakePresets.json, even with no include field, in all versions of the format.

Although I did try to add an include of CMakePresets in my CMakeUserPresets file, it doesn't help.

Additional Information

I'm on v1.19.35

Could you test this vsix?
cmake-tools.zip

This should (I believe), fix the regression.

It doesn't look like a vsix file, how should I install it?

[gcampbell-msft]

@christophe-calmejane Ah, my apologies, some people I've already given the instructions and some I haven't.

Steps:

1. Download the file.
2. Change the extension from .zip to .vsix (Github doesn't allow dropping of .vsix)
3. Install manually in VSCode extensions pane:

Oh yes sorry I didn't know that. (But I just dropped the vsix file to the extension panel and it correctly replaced my version with yours).
I can confirm it both fixes this issue, and that #3522 is also working fine.
