I'm finding that my environment variables are not getting picked up when I
try to do an ant build from within eclipse.
I am running 3.1.2 on Macintosh OSX 10.4.6 and I typically run eclipse by
double-clicking the application icon in /Applications. However, I find
that my environment variables (as set in .bash_profile) are not being
picked up.
If I run from a shell prompt, I see all my environment variables are
appropriately set.
Perhaps this is a mac question, but is there a way to pass my environment
into eclipse when launched via double-clicking on the app icon?
Thanks,
Linus

Eclipse will inherit the environment that it is launched from. This
means that it will not usually match the environment in your shell
unless you launch from the shell.
There are a few options for setting up your Mac environment. This
article gives a good summary:
