Variable expansion

ipc_boot and bshell can expand environment variables listed in the $BSE/lib/bse_vars file.

A variable is only expanded if its name is surrounded by braces ({<variable>}).

Example

BSE=/usr/bse

$BSE/lib/bse_vars contains this setting:

LIBPATH=${BSE}/shlib:/opt/db2/lib

This is expanded to:

LIBPATH=/usr/bse/shlib:/opt/db2/lib

Note: If the braces are missing, the variable is not expanded. For example:

LIBPATH=$BSE/shlib:/opt/db2/lib

is not expanded.
