   clearenv    ( 3 )

очистить окружающую среду (clear the environment)

Имя (Name)

clearenv - clear the environment

Синопсис (Synopsis)

#include <stdlib.h>

int clearenv(void);

Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

clearenv(): /* Glibc since 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE || /* Glibc <= 2.19: */ _SVID_SOURCE || _BSD_SOURCE


Описание (Description)

The clearenv() function clears the environment of all name-value
       pairs and sets the value of the external variable environ to
       NULL.  After this call, new variables can be added to the
       environment using putenv(3) and setenv(3).

Возвращаемое значение (Return value)

The clearenv() function returns zero on success, and a nonzero
       value on failure.

Версии (Versions)

Available since glibc 2.0.

Стандарты (Conforming to)

Various UNIX variants (DG/UX, HP-UX, QNX, ...).  POSIX.9
       (bindings for FORTRAN77).  POSIX.1-1996 did not accept clearenv()
       and putenv(3), but changed its mind and scheduled these functions
       for some later issue of this standard (see §B.4.6.1).  However,
       POSIX.1-2001 adds only putenv(3), and rejected clearenv().

Примечание (Note)

On systems where clearenv() is unavailable, the assignment

environ = NULL;

will probably do.

The clearenv() function may be useful in security-conscious applications that want to precisely control the environment that is passed to programs executed using exec(3). The application would do this by first clearing the environment and then adding select environment variables.

Note that the main effect of clearenv() is to adjust the value of the pointer environ(7); this function does not erase the contents of the buffers containing the environment definitions.

The DG/UX and Tru64 man pages write: If environ has been modified by anything other than the putenv(3), getenv(3), or clearenv() functions, then clearenv() will return an error and the process environment will remain unchanged.
