From: Iain Patterson Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2014 21:19:32 +0000 (+0000) Subject: Revamped environment variables again. X-Git-Tag: v2.22~39 X-Git-Url: http://git.iain.cx/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=eac4d7eedfe338703f0103aac01af2ca306f615a;p=nssm.git Revamped environment variables again. A previous commit changed how environment variables were managed. Initially we were calling SetEnvironmentVariable() on each variable defined in AppEnvironmentExtra prior to starting the service. That behaviour was changed because it was technically incorrect, potentially resulting in NSSM's own environment being harmed. Unfortunately the changed method, creating a new environment block by calling GetEnvironmentStrings() (or using the block from AppEnvironment if that and AppEnvironmentExtra were both defined), failed if users did something like set AppEnvironmentExtra to PATH=C:\bin;%PATH%. That would result in the process being started with a block which included TWO occurrences of the PATH variable; the system-defined one and the appended one. The latter would be ignored, possibly causing the application to fail to start. For this third attempt we now call GetEnvironmentStrings() once at startup, storing the block in a new variable which is only freed at exit. Immediately prior to calling CreateProcess() to start the service we use the new environment functions duplicate_environment() (on AppEnvironment) and set_environment_block() (on AppEnvironmentExtra) to set the variables. Then immediately after calling CreateProcess() we call duplicate_environment() again to restore the original block. Because they are passed to expand_environment_string(), the environment blocks are subject to expansion. That means that setting PATH as described in the example above would work. Trying to append items to the PATH by setting AppEnvironment in a similar way will probably not work. Thanks Bryan Senseman. --- diff --git a/README.txt b/README.txt index ded8b7a..85bf62e 100644 --- a/README.txt +++ b/README.txt @@ -354,7 +354,33 @@ environment variables which will be added to the service's environment.
