large folders in .cache/vscode-cpptools

[maziar (maziar840)]

I have a limited quota and large folders in ~/.cache/vscode-cpptools that look like this:

I have already set the Intelli Sense Cache Path to somewhere else, but these are still generated in that folder (after I delete them). Any ideas what they are and how to prevent them from being regenerated there?

maziar (@maziar840) You also have to set C_Cpp.default.browse.databaseFilename to something else, such as "${workspaceFolder}/.vscode/vc.db".

Seems to be working. Thank you.

I set C_Cpp.default.browse.databaseFilename and C_Cpp.intelliSenseCachePath to something else, but these dirs are still regenerated after being deleted, even if no file within these dirs.
Is there any way to completely prevent these dirs from being regenerated ?
