Are environment variables exposed to NetRexx?

[Fernando Cassia-2]

Hi,

I wonder if environment variables are exposed to NetRexx.
e.g. when running a NetRexx App on Windows, I would like to obtain the
%homepath% of the host Windows system.

Preferably not having to parse disk files....

Should I use JNI?

Thanks,
FC

They are exposed in Java via java.lang.System.getenv(String name)

So you should be able to get at them just with System.getenv...

Hi Fernando,

you can just use

System.getenv(“HOME”)

or do a

System.getenv()

to get a map of variable names to values.

best regards,

René.

Thanks, René and Dave.

I just got back to my email after a week without my desktop. 

Thanks for your helpful and timely responses. And sorry for the untimely reply.
