Hi,
Could try this out:
## code start
#!/usr/bin/perl
BEGIN {
$ENV{MY_VAL} = 'This is It';
}
print "ENV = ",$ENV{MY_VAL},"\n";
## code ends

This can't work. Perl is running as a child process. Parents can't
inherit the environments of their children. Environment settings can
only be propagated to children.

Hi list,
how can I set an environmental variable from within perl - so that it will
be valid after the perl script has completed as well?
i have done the following...
$ENV{'MY_ENV_VAR'}="Some value";
...and in shell...
echo $MY_ENV_VAR
...but no good.
I also tried...
system("export MY_ENV_V
