Should by GTW run configuration see path variables?

Answered

When I launch a project from eclipse that relies on what Eclipse calls "Environment variables"

I try to setup Path variables with the same values in IntelliJ but when I launch the application it appears that these path variables were not seen.

...

I have a project that has been built with Eclipse and so they've built in the need for environment variables which it seems IntelliJ does not support with GWT run configurations.

For now I've added the ability to also read these settings from system properties and that allows me to work around this issue.

Still the same in 2025.

Annoying since it seems that the default working directory of the GWT run config has moved out of the project root into what seems to be the JDK location, so our saved launch config, which was using relative path specifications, stopped working.
