I set my variable like this:
SET Ant="%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\Downloads\apache-ant-1.9.0-bin\apache-ant-1.9.0\bin"
:: Set Path variable
setx PATH "%Ant%" /m
Then, the result for the path variable is :
C:\Users\Ruben\Downloads\apache-ant-1.9.0-bin\apache-ant-1.9.0\bin
As we can see, environnement variables are expanded.
I would like them not to be expanded to set my path variable like this:
%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\Downloads\apache-ant-1.9.0-bin\apache-ant-1.9.0\bin
Is there a way to not expand environnement variables ?
