Hi Thread GURUS,
I'm using Linux OS. Does anyone know how to set environment
variables in threads that can be utilized by the system() function.
I have the following code.
This sets all my environment variables and set them correctly.
foreach ( @RESULT )
{
my ($ENV_VAR, $ENV_VAL) = split(/\=/);
chomp(${ENV_VAL});
$ENV{${ENV_VAR}} = ${ENV_VAL};
# print "Each line is \"${ENV_VAR}\"=\"${ENV_VAL}\"\n";
}
This prints out everything correctly.
print `env`;
print "ENV{'DIR'} is $ENV{'DIR'}\n";
I run 3 threads.
foreach my $PLATFORM ( @BLD_PLATFORMS )
{
push (@THREADS, threads->create(\&BUILD,
${BLD_CMD}, ${PLATFORM}));
}
When I call the "system" command, the environment variables I set
doesn't exist? Any idea what I did wrong? How can use or set the env.
variables, so these variables can be used with the system call? any help
or insight will be greatly appreciated.
sub BUILD
{
...more code
system ("make ...");
}
