Description Andrew Overholt

Consider the following scenario:

- projectA is a managed build library project
- projectB is a managed build executable project which uses projectA's library and has a project reference to projectA

When one creates a launch configuration for projectB, one must manually add an LD_LIBRARY_PATH (or PATH on Windows, I'm told) environment variable that references projectA's build location.  It would be nice if this were done automatically.

As a more generic request, we need all toolchain environment (or at least an integrator configurable amount of it) to be set before running the debugger.
