Read environment variable to fill out protocol head variables possible?

[[Ka...]]

Dear colleagues,

As much of CALYPSO still dates back to the 1990s, when IT was simply a tool and usually worked, I’m hoping for the standard functionality of that era.
Virtually every piece of software (even CATIA...) could be controlled or enhanced via environment variables. One example is the batch files, which still work well as user exits.

Now I would like to trigger a user input via one of these batch files, *calculation_end.bat*. I would then like to use this input – for example, a name – as a log header variable in a PiWeb log. We do not have PCM, which is probably the biggest limitation for such functionality.

So is there a way to get an environment variable into PiWeb somehow?
e.g. Zaphod_Beeblebrox=42  as environment variable

Best Regards
Karsten

I believe so by mapping header variables
