setenv: cannot add the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Hi all!
I need to add new environment variable.
e.g. # setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/usr/ucblib:"
#
I check:# env
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/ucblib:
After rebooting I don't see this variable.
Why don't save this variable?

Thanks.

they aren't persistent across reboots. you can either force the environment to be set from your .profile (or whatever shell you use), or adjust crle to include this library. however, if you adjust crle, those libraries maybe used over others which may cause some issue. be mindful of the order in which these are listed.

But I tried in .login
# Main Paths set
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/ucblib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

don't work.Smilie

Try setting it in the profile file instead

Hi.

Also. In CSH it will complain if the variable is not already set when appending to it.

Use
Code:
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
...
...
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/ucblib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

---
I never fail to be amused at just how bad CSH is!
Code:
# Good...
% setenv Q
% setenv Q BLAH:$Q
% echo $Q
BLAH:

# Not good...
% setenv Q
% setenv Q $Q:BLAH
Bad : modifier in $ (B).

# Good...
% setenv Q ${Q}:BLAH
% echo $Q
BLAH:BLAH
