NAME

       cgiwrap_getenv  - the wrapper for getenv

SYNOPSIS

       #include <cgi/cgiwrap.h>

       NEOERR *cgiwrap_getenv (const char *k, char **v);

ARGUMENTS

       k - the environment variable to lookup

DESCRIPTION

       cgiwrap_getenv  wraps  the  getenv function for access to environment variables, which are
       used to pass data to CGI scripts.  This version differs from the system getenv in that  it
       makes  a  copy  of  the  value  it  returns, which gets around problems when wrapping this
       routine in garbage collected/reference counted languages by moving the  ownership  of  the
       data to the calling function.

RETURN VALUE

       v - a newly allocated copy of the value of that variable, or
       NULL if not found.
