WNT environmental vars [message #22804] Fri, 08 December 2000 10:47

I'm trying to get a fairly large project (~250 .pro files in several
directories) working on WNT. I didn't write it want to make minimal
changes for NT. The project is normally compiled and saved and
has a number of batch files which do the appropriate compiles, saves,
etc. These all use environmental variables in lines like:

.compile $IDLSRC/xxx/file.pro

Under Unix that works fine as long as the IDLSRC environmental variable
is defined. (Works fine on VMS too using $IDLSRC as the logical name -
even with the Unix syntax.) But under WNT, IDL is looking for
c:/current/dir/$IDLSRC/xxx/file.pro (where 'c:/current/dir' is my
current working directory).

Is there a way on WNT to use setenv to make this work?

Thanks,
Dave
