Getting a live view of environment variables (Gradle and JDK 9)

[Jonathan Bluett-Duncan]

Hi Cédric,

I don't know if it's been considered, but has anyone from the Gradle team
asked the Bazel team about this problem?

They may have useful insight about this problem with `System.getenv`,
considering that Bazel is apparently very fast and (partially) written in
Java.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
Jonathan
