Hi,
Is there a method by which we can permanently define an env variable from a perl script? I mean i define a variable and set its value in a script. And i can access the variable even if i quit the script?
I have tried using the system("setenv VAR var_value"); but this dosent work.
#!/local/bin/perl -w
print "Before setting ".$ENV{'VAR1'},"\n";
system("setenv VAR1 Ashish");
print "After Setting ".$ENV{'VAR1'},"\n";
## this just sets the variable as long as the script is running ##
$ENV{'VAR1'}="Ashish";
$e1=$ENV{'VAR1'};
print "Env Variale is $e1\n";
##
Any pointers?
Thanks
Ashish
