Runtime::exec clarification of inherited environment

XMLWordPrintable

    • b32

        The spec of
        https://download.java.net/java/early_access/jdk20/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/Runtime.html#exec(java.lang.String%5B%5D,java.lang.String%5B%5D,java.io.File) mention that
        "If envp is null, the subprocess inherits the environment settings of the current process."

        Here the term "inherits" looks ambiguous, It would be helpful to clarify/enhance this further in the spec.
