We are planning to support variables in 3.0. This function is not supported in 2.1. This will require the java launch config delegate and tab to support variables. Further suggestions, thinsg we need to be able to do within VM args (in psuedo
Win2K speak).
-DXXX=${project_loc}/a/b/c
-DYYY=%XXX%;/c/d/e
-DPATH=${project_loc}/x/y/x;%PATH%

Our project debug configuration requires several VM -D arguments. We must have a way to specify a path relative the project which is then converted to the correct absolute path for the VM Some thing like -D XXX={project}\myFolder which gets expanded to -D XXX=C:\x\y\z\myFolder As it stands today, launch configuration is VERY user unfriendly for a large team which has Eclipse/projects installed in various places. Thanks
