I'm unable to access then NT System Environment from a proc that has been
previously sourced in. Example included.
I am adding java functionality to an existing test harness. It consists
of a group of files containing procs all of which are sourced in when the
test harness is kicked off. I've noticed that the System's Environment
Variables, such as PATH and CLASSPATH are not accessible from within any
proc that has been previously sourced in.
I am able to reproduce this problem in the following simple example:
Create a file named foo.tcl with the following 3 lines
proc Foo {} {
puts "CLASSPATH = $env(CLASSPATH)"
}
While in the directory that contains foo.tcl, start tclsh and issue the
following three commands.
Here's what it does for me:
c:\> tclsh
% echo $env(CLASSPATH)
".;c:\tcl8.0\lib\tclblend1.1.1\tcljava.jar;c:\tcl8.0\lib\tclblend1.1.1\
tclblend.jar;c:\jdk1.1.7B\bin;c:\jdk1.1.7b\lib\classes.zip
% source foo.tcl
% Foo
can't read "env(CLASSPATH)": no such variable
% exit
I'd appreciate any help if someone can show me how to access the System's
Environment Variables, such as CLASSPATH and PATH from inside a proc that
has been initially sourced in, then later called.
thanks for your help,
Mike Bryan
