in thread Win32 Perl fail to see the set ENV in loaded module

Hi, I wrote a c program which load the dynamic library using LoadLibrary(..) call. And before doing that, I try to set the environment variable in the program using putenv(..). The dll very well can see the environment variable. I see this is an issue with perl loading the library and the environment it can use. It would be good if someone can confirm so I can file a bug. -Karthik

Is your C program giving an absolute path to LoadLibrary? If not, then the process's exe's dir is searched, then PATH is searched. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms684175%28v=vs.85%29.aspx. What else from the .pm runs during your require call? Did something do local(%ENV)?	[reply]
