Load Build environment from a file [message #684199] Wed, 15 June 2011 04:09 Go to next message

I have projects that depends on ample amount of environment variables
I would like to load those into the project. I need something similar to shell 'source' or '.' command.
Thanks for suggestions

Sounds like a good enhancement request. Not promising anything, but it's better to have a record if it: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=CDT

I conclude from your response that currently it is not possible (I filed the enhancement request).
Is it possible to do it by a simple plugin?

Hello,
have you solved the problem in some way ?

We use to set build variables, and we use them to build include paths and libraries paths.

The dilemma is:
1. Set build variables in Workspace: It's good we can change variable in one point only for all projects in workspace. It's bad workspace build variables are not versioned (Serena Dimensions CM, git, cvs, subversion are versioning only projects storing .cproject and .project.
2. Set same build variables in each project: It's good build variables are versioned within the project, It's bad when we need to update them in every single project inside the workspace.

Should be nice to load variables in every project from a shared file (maybe with an extra project containing that file).
