Environment Variables
The Program Environment area accepts additional environment variables that TotalView should pass to a process when it is launched.
By default, a new process inherits TotalView environment variables, and a remote process inherits tvdsvr’s environment variables. Using this window, you can add new variables, change the value of existing variables, or delete a variable.
Either separate each argument with a space, or place each one on a separate line. If an argument contains spaces, enclose the entire argument in double-quotation marks.
At startup, TotalView reads in your environment variables to ensure that your program has access to them when the program begins executing. You can add additional environment variables or to override values of existing variables.
TotalView does not display the variables that were passed to it when you started your debugging session. Instead, this area just displays the variables you added using this command.
The format for specifying an environment variable is name=value. For example, the following definition creates an environment variable named DISPLAY whose value is enterprise:0.0:
DISPLAY=enterprise:0.0
You can also enter this information using the Process Window’s Process > Startup Parameters command.
