Hi Robert, I understood the problem from your very first report. I brought up putenv() not updating os.environ only because you mentioned in the original report that it does. All you need is a way to get the current value of an environment variable. The situation is a bit complicated since a cache is in the picture (os.environ). I would suggest that you bring up the topic for discussion on python-dev and once a consensus is reached, some one can come up with a patch (I can try). __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1159> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
