My apologies if this is well known, or posted else where. I have not found what i am looking for.
I am trying to set the value of a global "workspace" level variable in eclipse using a external tool. By workspace level, I mean that it is not specific to a build, debug, or run configuration.
Is this possible? If not, is there a work around that you can suggest? I have tried making my external tool set a windows environment variable, but eclipse did not recognized said environment variable until i restarted it.
On a side note, I found the following. Set Environment Variable At Eclipse workspace level for all launchers?
I haven't been able to get eclipse to recognize variable set in this manner.
I should note, that i am using re-packaged version of eclipse cdt.
Thanks for your help!
