Hey all,
How do I get environment variables in a D program? I specifically want the
path to a user's home folder.
Ta muchly.
In Tango, there's tango.sys.Environment
(http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/docs/current/tango.sys.Environment.html)
which provides a nice interface to environment variables.
In Phobos, I think you have to use the C functions to get at
environment variables, but std.path.expandTilde can be abused to get
the home folder ;)
Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for.
I thought (perhaps wrongly) C allowed you to declare main as taking a
list of environment variables, which is why I asked here rather than
Tango's forums. But D doesn't, so I probably should have asked at the
library-specific forums.
