Bug ID: 458041
Summary: Setting evironment variable to empty should unset the
env
Product: kdevelop
Version: 5.9.220800
Platform: Snap
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: master.ha...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
If there is an environment variable set that must be completely unset in order
for your app to function, there is no way to unset it through the ui
environment variables. Currently setting the variable to empty does nothing
(kdevelop ignores it and leaves the env alone)
Setting the variable to empty (or <unset> /something) should do a unsetenv
instead of being ignored.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set random env to a value prior to launching kdevelop (so that it is in the
kdev environment)
2. Set that same env to an empty on the value side in launch configuration
3. print the env from your program
OBSERVED RESULT
the env variable is the same as it originally was, and is not unset (nor even
set to empty string)
EXPECTED RESULT
Should be set to undefined as though you had called unsetenv
