Re: [cdt-dev] Adding an argument to the build

Thanks everybody. The IConfigurationEnvironmentVariableSupplier does what I need it to do.

You should be able to set env. variables per configuration so even more specific than per project.
I have done it before in org.eclipse.cdt.autotools.core/src/org/eclipse/cdt/internal/autotools/core/AutotoolsEnvironmentVariableSupplier.java
but you can probably also add it directly to the configuration without using a IConfigurationEnvironmentVariableSupplier

Using an environment variable is a good idea. With that said, is it possible add an environment variable per project (and not globally)?

For example, if I have project1, I'd like to set myarg=foobar1, and for project2, I'd like to set myarg=foobar2. Is this possible?

Yeah, I'm not even sure changing the command in the .project file would work. Env var would be the easiest to add to all configs. CDT's env var manager doesn't seem to have an API though. You'd have to look at how the preference page inserts the env vars.

Perhaps setting an environment variable achieve the same thing? That should be easier to programmatically add.

Hi all,

I am trying to figure out to programmatically add an argument to each build (independent of the build target).

For example,

make all myarg=foobar

One possible way that comes to mind is to obtain the org.eclipse.core.resources.IProjectDescription from the IProject, create a newCommand, and modify the buidSpec. However, I am not sure this a valid or best way of doing things.

Any suggestions and/or code examples are most welcome.

Richard
