Defining a DOS environment variable
Posted: Fri Apr 04, 2008 09:39 AM

Hello,

The function GETENV() is used to read a DOS environment variable in a FW-application.

But does anyone know how to define a DOS environment variable from in a FW-application ?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Michel,

From Windows API:

BOOL SetEnvironmentVariable(
LPCTSTR lpName, // address of environment variable name
LPCTSTR lpValue // address of new value for variable
);

Notice that it sets the environment variable for the current process
