[Qgis-developer] where is QGIS_PLUGINPATH defined?

2011-05-08 Thread Ricardo Filipe Soares Garcia da
Hi list

Sorry for the newbish question:
I remember reading somewhere online about the QGIS_PLUGINPATH
environment variable and thinking it was a cool idea. I set it up to
point to my local development folder.
Now I want to disable it to test some improvements on a plugin, but I
don't remember where it is set...

I've checked ~/.bashrc, ~/.profile, /etc/environment and I couldn't find it.

So I'm thinking this online source where I remember reading about this
variable probably had some tip on how to set it up. Maybe it is even
inside one of Qgis's internal folders. Anyone knows where it is
defined?

Thanks

timlinux@vaoi:~/dev/cpp/qgis-github-clone$ egrep -R QGIS_PLUGINPATH src/*
src/python/qgspythonutilsimpl.cpp:  // plugin dirs passed in
QGIS_PLUGINPATH env. variable have highest priority (usually empty)
src/python/qgspythonutilsimpl.cpp:  const char* cpaths = getenv(
"QGIS_PLUGINPATH" );
src/python/qgspythonutilsimpl.h://! return a list of extra plugins
paths passed with QGIS_PLUGINPATH environment variable

No it is only read. I suggest using a command similar to above to
search your home directory to see if it has been set somewhere.

Regards

Tim
