如何找出Eclipse路径变量或字符串变量（`$ {some_var}`）的值？

Question

In Eclipse, one can use so called " path variables " and so called " string variables " at some places. For example, in a "run configuration", the base directory can be set to ${project_loc:/${project_name}} instead of providing a static value.

How can I find out the value of such a variable (or the value of an expression consisting of possibly several variables)?

Answer 1

Open the Project "Properties" dialog. On the left-side menu, expand "Resource" and click on "Linked Resource". This will should immediately show the defined "Path Variables" on the big right panel, including $project_loc$. Note you can also add new variables to your project.
