IDE 7.0 GA Setting Environment Vars in the Debug settings  
Hi,

Want to say that I love the IDE 7.0.  It is SO nice.  We are using it with QNX 6.5 and QNX 6.6, and it integrates and 
uses the 6.5 tools with no effort.  It has been great.  Nice job.

I am having one issue that I wanted to bring up.  It isn't a show stopper, but if you aren't aware of it, I wanted to 
provide a description.

If I create a Debug configuration and along with the other config settings I set up an environment variable (selecting 
Replace Native environment with specified environment), I see that variable and value when the binary runs if I launch 
the binary from the Debug Configurations Dialog.

If I run the binary using the little bug symbol in the drop down (selecting the same configuration I just created), the 
Environment variable is not replaced by the one specified in the configuration dialog.

Nothing urgent, but wanted to point it out.

Thanks
Kevin

Cool. Thanks Kevin. We¹ll take a look at that and see what¹s happening.

Cheers,

Re: IDE 7.0 GA Setting Environment Vars in the Debug settings  
FYI: Seems to be doing it for other settings as well.  There seem to be two copies, it feels like it is being cached in 
memory and not being updated when the debug configuration is modified.

Thanks
Kevin
