NAME

BOOL Setenv (string , buffer )

LOCATION
In ArpBase at offset 48

SYNOPSIS
STRPTR string
STRPTR buffer

FUNCTION
This function provides an environment variable mechanism compatible with MANX. Note that this call is more efficient than using the manx setenv() function call when arplibrary is installed.

INPUTS
string
- pointer to an environment variable name.
buffer
- a user allocated area which will contains the values to be associated with this environment variabnle.
RESULT
If the value was succesfully established, a TRUE result will be returned, otherwise, a FALSE value will be returned. ADDTIONAL CONSIDERATIONS MANX was the first to implement environment variables on the Amiga. As a result, we are trying to be compatible with their implementation.
