Hi all,
i can't query the LIB environment variable from C++ code, compiled with
g++, with GetEnvironmentVariable, as demonstrated in the appended, small
example program. Other variables (e.g. PATH could be retrieved without
problems). The example program queries LIB and prints it out. The output
i received is an empty string.
I've installed the current cygwin version.
If i go back with the cygwin dll to 1.5.18-1 it worked without
problems!!! But than a lot of other cygwin tools don't worked.
The problem occured originally on compiling the Coin3D library. They are
using a cygwin compiled wrapper program (wrapmsvc.exe), which is
querying the LIB variable and failed.
Many thanks for any hints
Kai
