   The PR is attached, to test it, add the following properties to launch.json of test case ArgsTest(in TestPlan.md)

    "mainClass": "ArgsTest",
     "args": ["a b", "foo \\\"bar"],
    "vmArgs": ["-Xms64M",  "-Xmx128M",  "-Dfoo= \\bar"]
   

   Add the following statement to get the properties:

     String foo = (String) System.getProperties().get("foo");
   

   the variables should be like this:

   

   Please be careful that the bad vmArgs may cause the program fail to start, eg: "vmArgs": ["-Xms64M", "-Xmx128M", "-Dfoo= "bar"], it is by-design and can also be reproduced at eclipse.
