Eclipse IDE: How to add this configuration during running?

Question

For running of one of my C++ programs, using terminal(Ubuntu) I use

Note: I'm trying to Embed Python in C++. Hence, PYTHONPATH in C++. Refer to Python/C API for more details.

$ PYTHONPATH=. ./prog_name

Sorry, I didn't know how to ask this question on Google. I want to do the same running with Eclipse. I don't know where to specify PYTHONPATH=. during running from Eclipse. How to produce the equivalent of this? I tried putting in argument list, but obviously it didn't work. Thanks!

PS. Don't downvote just because you don't understand that python scripts can be called through C++ .. Lol

why would you want to add pythonpath for running C++ programs? — user2963623, Jun 30 '14 at 17:25
@user2963623 I'm trying to embed Python in C++, hence running a python script from a C++ program. — user3000805, Jun 30 '14 at 17:27
@user2963623 Why would I need pydev, I'm using the Python/C API.... PS. I'm not trying to run python scripts from Eclipse. — user3000805, Jun 30 '14 at 17:29
Well I don't know how to add to pythonpath in this case, but usually in Eclipse there's an option to edit pythonpath in windows->preferences->pydev->... — user2963623, Jun 30 '14 at 17:32
@user2963623 thats for pydev (Python through Eclipse) which wont work here, but thanks anyway — user3000805, Jun 30 '14 at 17:35

Hi to all those facing the same problem, i found the solution! setenv() is a function defined in which sets the environment variable. Just have to run it!

setenv("PYTHONPATH",".",1);

for more info on setenv:

$ man setenv

All the best :)
