Hi,

I would like to use the org.eclipse.debug.ui.EnvironmentTab tab on my
launchConfigurationTabGroup, but right now I can't beacuse I can not
find any information on how to evaluate environmental variables in my
launcher. I can get the map holding the set environmental variables,
and can read the pair of names and values, however at that point the
values are still 'unresolved'.
For example: ${env_var:PATH} .

This is a huge problem as on the tab the user can insert variables into
the value of a environmental variable, and I have to set them for a
process I'm creating.

How can the value of an environmental variable be resolved?
(I hope there is some functionality in Eclipse for this).

Try IStringVariableManager and VariablesPlugin.
