Any update on this? Also, variables work in java.test.config:

    "java.test.config": [{
        "name": "cldrtest",
        "workingDirectory": "${workspaceFolder}",
        "vmargs": [
            "-DCLDR_DIR=${workspaceFolder}",
            "-DCLDR_ENVIRONMENT=UNITTEST"
        ]
    }],

… but not in vmArgs:

{
    "java.debug.settings.vmArgs": "-DCLDR_DIR=${workspaceFolder}",
}

I think someone has just released an extension to parse variable in settings. Hope vscode-java exntesions developer can consider using it to support relative path for “java.home”, etc https://www.npmjs.com/package/vscode-variables
