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.
