Fwd: Re: NetRexx .Net - related

I understand that my description of the problem is clear as mud, so let
me try to explain this. In Unix, an environment variable needs to be
explicitly exported to be used in a child process. This is done using
export (bash, ksh, etc) or setenv (tcsh, csh, etc).

In DOS bat and consequently the NT Shell, set will do it, and for the
rest of the session in that window, the values will keep.

In Powershell, however, we are more in unix-territory. When I run the
old style batchfile, subsequent runs of the nrc command do not find the
new values. It needs something more. Now when I do:

G:\>type envset.ps1
# set path for binaries
$env:path = "%path%;g:\bin;C:\Program
Files\IBM\WebSphere\AST\runtimes\base_v61_stub\java\bin"
$env:classpath = ".;g:\lib\NetRexxC.jar;g:\lib\tools.jar"

and run it with ./envset

I get a fairly unsympathetic message:

PS G:\> ./envset
File G:\envset.ps1 cannot be loaded because the execution of scripts is
disabled on this system. Please see "get-help about_signing" for more
details.
At line:1 char:9
+ ./envset <<<<
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], PSSecurityException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : RuntimeException

but would this work on ordinary home systems?

best regards,

René.

Hi Mike,

thanks for this. I gather you set the global environment using the
Windows dialog; what I am specifically looking for is the way to invoke
NetRexx using a batch file under PowerShell, so setting the environment
variables in the same batch file that is used to invoke the translator.

best regards,

René.

Re: Fwd: Re: NetRexx .Net - related

Powershell is IMO, overly secure by default.

Two ways to approach:

1) Add this: Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
OR
2) Open text editor and paste your shell into it, so that the system thinks the file was created locally

The second is probably the better option, and then I would also just make it part of my powershell profile:
