System Variables

Return to Introduction  Previous page  Next page

System Variables are defined by FinalBuilder at startup. The actual variables available will depend on which software you have installed on your machine. System variables cannot be modified.

 

These System Variables are available on all machines :

 

SYSDIR

The Windows System Directory, eg. 'D:\WINNT\System32'

WINDIR

The Windows Directory - eg. 'D:\WINNT'

COMPUTERNAME

The name of the computer you are running FinalBuilder on.

USERNAME

The Name of the currently logged on User

DOSCMD

The path to the Dos command interpreter. This is used internally by FinalBuilder.

 

 

The following System Variables are created by FinalBuilder:

 

ISAUTOBUILD

True if the build is being run automatically from a command line parameter.

ISCONSOLEBUILD

True if the build is being run from the console under FBCMD.EXE.

ISINTERACTIVEBUILD

True if the build is being run under the FinalBuilder IDE.

ISINCLUDEDPROJECT

True if the current project is being run as a child project

(via the Include FinalBuilder Project Action)

FBPROJECT

The full path to the currently running FinalBuilder project file.

FBPROJECTDIR

The dir where the currently running FinalBuilder project lives.

FBDIR

The directory in which FinalBuilder is installed.

FBIGNOREDERRORS
