Developer Setup: Mac OS X

Environment Variable for Eclipse

For "normal" applications on OS X, you cannot set an environment variable using ~/.profile or ~/.bashrc. Instead, you must make use of the file ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist.

1. Download the sample environment.plist.
2. Edit the file and change /path/to/maqetta-workspace to your path for the Maqetta workspace files.
3. Create the folder ~/.MacOSX and move environment.plist into it.
4. You must log out and back in for these changes to take effect.
