SysEnvironment (Function)

In french: SysEnvironnement

Returns the environment variables of the operating system for the current computer.

Remark: To view and/or modify the current workstation's environment variables, open the Control Panel and click on the "System" icon.

Example

// Connaître toutes les variables d'environnement du système d'exploitation
ResEnvironnement = SysEnvironment()

// Connaître les variables d'environnement du système d'exploitation
Trace(SysEnvironment("homepath"))
// renvoie par exemple: 
// homepath=\Users\doc

Syntax

<Result> = SysEnvironment([<Environment variable>])

<Result>: Character string

Full environment of current computer (or server) if no <Environment variable> is specified. The environment lines are separated by CR characters.
Environment line whose first word corresponds to the <Environment variable> parameter.
Empty string ("") if a problem occurred.

<Environment variable>: Optional character string

Variable to find in the environment of the current computer ("PATH" or "USERNAME" for instance).

Remarks

The search on the <Environment variable> parameter is generic. For example, SysEnvironment("PR") returns the line corresponding to the prompt (if it exists in the environment).
If several lines match the search, only the first one is returned.

Equivalence

SysEnvironment returns the same result as the SET command of the DOS command line.
