<h3>Name</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
getenv - retrieve an environment variable
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Library</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Synopsis</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<tt>#include <stdlib.h></tt><br>
|
||||
<br>
|
||||
<tt>char *</tt><br>
|
||||
<tt>getenv(const char *</tt><em>variable</em><tt>);</tt>
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Description</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<tt>getenv</tt> retrieves the value of the environment variable
|
||||
<em>variable</em> from the current process environment.
|
||||
Unless you implement <tt>execve</tt> and environment variable passing,
|
||||
the environment used is a default environment compiled into libc.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Return Values</h3>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
On success, <tt>getenv</tt> returns a pointer to the value of the
|
||||
requested variable.
|
||||
This pointer points to internal storage and the contents should not be
|
||||
modified.
|
||||
The contents will in turn be stable until/unless the process
|
||||
environment is modified.
|
||||
If the requested variable is not found, <tt>getenv</tt> returns
|
||||
<tt>NULL</tt>.

||||
