expand_environment_variables()

static xtd::ustring xtd::environment::expand_environment_variables ( const xtd::ustring &  name )

static

Replaces the name of each environment variable embedded in the specified string with the string equivalent of the value of the variable, then returns the resulting string.

Parameters

name	A string containing the names of zero or more environment variables. Each environment variable is quoted with the percent sign character (%).

Returns

A string with each environment variable replaced by its value.

Remarks

Replacement only occurs for environment variables that are set. For example, suppose name is "MyENV = %MyENV%". If the environment variable, MyENV, is set to 42, this method returns "MyENV = 42". If MyENV is not set, no change occurs; this method returns "MyENV = %MyENV%".
