36 /* FUNCTION
37 This function will set a local or environmental variable. Although
38 it is recommended that you only use ASCII strings within variables,
39 this is not actually required.
41 Variable names are not case sensitive.
43 SetVar() for an already existing variable changes the variable's
44 value to "buffer".
46 INPUTS
47 name - The name of the variable to set.
48 buffer - The actual data of the variable.
49 size - The size of the data in the buffer.
50 flags - Combination of the type of variable to set (lower
51 8 bits of the value), and various flags which control
52 this function. Flags defined are:
54 GVF_LOCAL_ONLY - set a local variable only,
55 GVF_GLOBAL_ONLY - set a global environmental
56 variable only.
57 GVF_SAVE_VAR - If GVF_GLOBAL_ONLY is set, then
58 this flag will cause SetVar() to
59 save the variable to ENVARC: as well
60 as to ENV:.
61 GVF_BINARY_VAR and GVF_DONT_NULL_TERM are stored in
62 the lv_Flags field for local variables, but not
63 used otherwise by SetVar().
65 Note the default is to set a local environmental
66 variable.
68 The following variable types are defined:
69 LV_VAR - local environment variable
70 LV_ALIAS - shell alias
71 LVF_IGNORE - internal shell use
73 LV_VAR and LV_ALIAS should be treated as
74 "exclusive or".
77 RESULT
78 Zero if this function failed, non-zero otherwise.
80 NOTES
81 It is possible to have two variables with the same name as
82 long as they have different types.
84 EXAMPLE
86 BUGS
87 Only type LV_VAR can be made global.
89 If you set GVF_SAVE_VAR, and this function returns failure, the
90 variable may have still been set in ENV:.

95 INTERNALS

97 variables.
