[news.eclipse.tools.jdt] Launch Configuration

[gosvig@xxxxxxxxxx (Carsten Gosvig)]

Hi

I want to make a shared java launch configuration dependant on the project 
it is shared/saved within, like in:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<launchConfiguration type="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.localJavaApplication">
<stringAttribute key="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.MAIN_TYPE" 
value="net.gosvig.foo.Foo"/>
<stringAttribute key="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.PROJECT_ATTR" 
value="${project_name}"/>
<booleanAttribute key="org.eclipse.debug.core.appendEnvironmentVariables" 
value="true"/>
</launchConfiguration>

This does not work. Eclipse seems to require that the value of the 
PROJECT_ATTR is explicitly defined as the name of a project, not a 
variable.

Can anyone enlighten me on how I can make this work. I need a launch 
configuration to be the same in all the branches of a given SCM module.

Thanks,
Carsten
