49 Allows to limit a set of environment variables, change their values, | |
50 or create new environment variables, for the following cases: | |
51 <list type="bullet"> | |
52 | |
53 <listitem> | |
54 variable inheritance during a | |

65 <listitem> | |
66 use of variables by worker processes. | |
67 Please bear in mind that controlling system libraries in this way | |
68 isn't always possible as it's not uncommon for libraries to check | |
69 variables only during initialization, well before they can be set | |
70 using this directive. | |
71 An exception from this is an above mentioned | |
72 <link doc="control.xml" id="upgrade">live upgrade</link> | |
