Usage

You use this type of element to set the environment for the application.

<ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE Id="FGLGUI">1</ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE>

In this example, the environment variable FGLGUI is set to "1", the default graphic user interface (GUI) mode. (The application starts in text user interface (TUI) mode if FGLGUI is set to "0".)

<ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE Id="FGLWSDEBUG">3</ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE>

In this example, the environment variable FGLWSDEBUG is set to turn on debug information display in Web services. (To enable Web Services debug, set FGLWSDEBUG to 1, 2, or 3 depending on the level of debug information required. If FGLWSDEBUG is set to "0", debug is turned off.)
