Good stuff, really. I'm wondering if codium gets some love from the team eventually.

I am working on Swift for cross-compile, when I use VSCode on my macOS, I need to access some header file which is in linux sysroot (/usr/include).
So can VSCode support to set external header search path?

I assume that you pass a -Xcc -I -Xcc /usr/include during your swift build invocation, right? If so, you can pass the same arguments when launching SourceKit-LSP ("swift.sourcekit-lsp.serverArguments" in settings.json).

This sounds amazing, incredible work!

Add the -Xcc -I -Xcc /usr/include to the Swift: Build Arguments extension setting. These settings will automatically get passed onto SourceKit-LSP, as all -Xcc, -Xswiftc, -Xcxx and -Xlinker command line options include in the Swift: Build Arguments are passed on.
