How to add a new environment variable programatically

[MarcusAloshy]

I'm trying to add a new environment variable (Eg: HOME) like CWD and PWD, in project C/C++, Build/Environment variables every time creating a new C project using C Managed build template?

Use the CDT APIs, for example implement a class derived from IConfigurationEnvironmentVariableSupplier which in turn should define classes derived from IBuildEnvironmentVariable.

Is there any way without patching the plugin?

English is not my first language, but adding a new environment variable programatically (as the subject implies) means you do this in program right?
