Downloading C/C++ language components (Linux / x86_64)

Problem

The report from vscode (as shown in the title) cannot be canceled and keep showing there. This happens when I am trying to build a c++ environment on the server via vscode.

Solution

• Download cpptools-linux.vsix (click to
  download) from vscode-cpptools and save it at local.

• upload cpptools-linux.vsix to an arbitrary folder on server.

• click Extension - ... (on the upper right corner) - Install from VSIX..., then enter the path where you store your cpptools-linux.vsix on the server.
  

• Reload vscode, then done!
