He's working on an X11 app built in XCode using a native target. His problem is that the app expects a display environment variable to provide the xserver host name. When running the app via a shell he can put this variable in his .profile and all's well. But as the target process is owned directly by XCode and there's no intervening shell this doesn't work when debugging.

What's the best approach to capture environment variables for use when running under XCode within the project? (He would like that since it then is under version control and other developers will get the setting as part of getting the project and not need non-version-controlled magic data in order to build and debug.) I would have thought that just adding them to the target or build style would export them out but it doesn't seem to.

As in Project Builder, the Executables configuration lets you set env variables on launch or debug of the target application. In the Groups and Files list under Executables, select the executable you want and double-click it. There's an Environment Variables area where you can press the (+) button to add env variables that are set at launch and debug time.
