Hi Tim

 

I'm using the following code snippet for updating the environment variable. It works fine for me.

 

<target name="update-class-path-for-release" >
  
  <property name="release.classpath" value="${WebMethods.Enterprise.Integrator.Home}\lib\activeworks45.jar;
   ${WebMethods.Enterprise.Integrator.Home}\lib\client45.jar;
   ${WebMethods.Enterprise.Integrator.Home}\lib\activeworks40.jar;${Agent.File.Set};
   ${Application.File.Set};${Broker_Patch.Set};${EAF.File.Set};${J2EE.File.Set}"/>
 
  <property name="sys.env.x" value="${environment::get-variable('CLASSPATH')}"/>
  
  <echo message = "Setting CLASSPATH for installing agent services"/>
  
  <script language="C#">
   <code><![CDATA[
   
   public static void ScriptMain(Project project)
   {
    string x = project.Properties["sys.env.x"];
    SetEnvironmentVariable("CLASSPATH",  project.Properties["release.classpath"]);
   }
   
   [ System.Runtime.InteropServices.DllImport( "kernel32") ]
   public static extern bool SetEnvironmentVariable( string EnvironmentVariable, string EnvironmentValue );
   
  
  ]]></code>
  </script>
 
  <echo message="${environment::get-variable('CLASSPATH')}"/>
  <echo message ="CLASSPATH changed"/>
 </target>

 

Thanks

Shelly

Subject: [Nant-users] Setting Environment paths in NANT

I am fairly new to NANT and I was wondering how the best way to set the environment path in a NANT build project.

 

I tried the following in the build, just before the <solution> call:

 

  <setenv>
              <variable name="PATH"       path="%PATH%"/>
              <variable name="INCLUDE" path="${HEADERINC};${SHAREDTPH};%INCLUDE%"/>
              <variable name="LIB"          path="${SHAREDLIB};%LIB%"/>
 </setenv>

But when I run the build I will still get an error stating that one of the header files could not be found.  The header file in the error is in the ${HEADERINC} path property so this is either not setting correctly or the project is not using this environment variable and therefore not even checking these paths.  Does the project have to set the solution to use the /useenv setting and if so then how do you set that?

 

We are currently using NANT 0.85 -rc3.

 

Thanks for any help on this issue.
