Using eclipse CDT. Can't figure out where to put in an alias that sets some environment variables and sources a few files (linux file system) before attempting to run the debug configuration. I know that eclipse's shell is separate from linux's shell.
Where is such a thing set?

Cheers

The launch configuration dialogs have tabs for


    Environment variables
    Source lookup paths
    and other things


You get to them using

    Run --> Debug Configurations .. or
    Run --> Run Configurations ... or
    the arrows next to the Debug or Run As tool bar buttons


If you want to run something in addition to the debugger you could try replacing the debug command with something like
bash bashScriptFilename.sh or
bash /c "bunch of commands"
Never tried it.
May not work.

Just so you know, the launch configurations are unique by name and workspace.
If you edit one with Debug Configurations .. you get a Debugger tab and the Debug (vs. Run) button
