Hello!

Is there a way to set environment variables before processing a rule?
Regarding to my use case the preferred way would be to set it inside the
run and/or the test-suite rule arguments.

<pseudo>
test-suite test01 :  [ run test_01.cpp
                           ../..//variant : <env>MYVAR=/data
                     ]
             : <threading>multi
             ;
</pseudo>

Thank you very much, jan.
