Description James Blackburn CLA 2010-08-03 09:04:36 EDT 
The HeadlessBuilder supports extending the set of -Is, -Ds and -includes (bug 310819).  
We need to be able to extend the environment variables from the command line when running a headlessbuild. This would be a useful enhancement as we use the environment to control the toolchain versions.
Patch to come.

patch 1

This patch adds the ability to override / prepend / append or remove environment variables for the scope of a headless build.

It does this by adding a small amount of internal 'api' to UserDefinedEnvironmentSupplier to allow the HeadlessBuilder to specify these overrides for the context of a single build.
Changes are localised and JavaDoc'd
