蒂姆·瑞安的回答对我很管用……但我希望它用于Groovy(例如Spock上下文)，并且simplissimo:

import java.lang.reflect.Field

def getModifiableEnvironmentMap() {
    def unmodifiableEnv = System.getenv()
    Class cl = unmodifiableEnv.getClass()
    Field field = cl.getDeclaredField("m")
    field.accessible = true
    field.get(unmodifiableEnv)
}

def clearEnvironmentVars( def keys ) {
    def savedVals = [:]
    keys.each{ key ->
        String val = modifiableEnvironmentMap.remove(key)
        // thinking about it, I'm not sure why we need this test for null
        // but haven't yet done any experiments
        if( val != null ) {
            savedVals.put( key, val )
        }
    }
    savedVals
}

def setEnvironmentVars(Map varMap) {
    modifiableEnvironmentMap.putAll(varMap)
}

// pretend existing Env Var doesn't exist
def PATHVal1 = System.env.PATH
println "PATH val1 |$PATHVal1|"
String[] keys = ["PATH", "key2", "key3"]
def savedVars = clearEnvironmentVars(keys)
def PATHVal2 = System.env.PATH
println "PATH val2 |$PATHVal2|"

// return to reality
setEnvironmentVars(savedVars)
def PATHVal3 = System.env.PATH
println "PATH val3 |$PATHVal3|"
println "System.env |$System.env|"

// pretend a non-existent Env Var exists
setEnvironmentVars( [ 'key4' : 'key4Val' ])
println "key4 val |$System.env.key4|"

事实证明，@pushy/@anonymous/@Edward Campbell的解决方案在Android上不起作用，因为Android并不是真正的Java。具体来说，Android根本没有java.lang.ProcessEnvironment。但事实证明在Android中更容易，你只需要对POSIX setenv()进行JNI调用:

打印C / JNI:

JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL Java_com_example_posixtest_Posix_setenv
  (JNIEnv* env, jclass clazz, jstring key, jstring value, jboolean overwrite)
{
    char* k = (char *) (*env)->GetStringUTFChars(env, key, NULL);
    char* v = (char *) (*env)->GetStringUTFChars(env, value, NULL);
    int err = setenv(k, v, overwrite);
    (*env)->ReleaseStringUTFChars(env, key, k);
    (*env)->ReleaseStringUTFChars(env, value, v);
    return err;
}

在Java中:

public class Posix {

    public static native int setenv(String key, String value, boolean overwrite);

    private void runTest() {
        Posix.setenv("LD_LIBRARY_PATH", "foo", true);
    }
}

这是@pushy的邪恶答案的Kotlin邪恶版本=)

@Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
@Throws(Exception::class)
fun setEnv(newenv: Map<String, String>) {
    try {
        val processEnvironmentClass = Class.forName("java.lang.ProcessEnvironment")
        val theEnvironmentField = processEnvironmentClass.getDeclaredField("theEnvironment")
        theEnvironmentField.isAccessible = true
        val env = theEnvironmentField.get(null) as MutableMap<String, String>
        env.putAll(newenv)
        val theCaseInsensitiveEnvironmentField = processEnvironmentClass.getDeclaredField("theCaseInsensitiveEnvironment")
        theCaseInsensitiveEnvironmentField.isAccessible = true
        val cienv = theCaseInsensitiveEnvironmentField.get(null) as MutableMap<String, String>
        cienv.putAll(newenv)
    } catch (e: NoSuchFieldException) {
        val classes = Collections::class.java.getDeclaredClasses()
        val env = System.getenv()
        for (cl in classes) {
            if ("java.util.Collections\$UnmodifiableMap" == cl.getName()) {
                val field = cl.getDeclaredField("m")
                field.setAccessible(true)
                val obj = field.get(env)
                val map = obj as MutableMap<String, String>
                map.clear()
                map.putAll(newenv)
            }
        }
    }

它至少在macOS Mojave上运行。

我偶然发现了这个线程，因为我有一个类似的需求，我需要设置(或更新)一个环境变量(永久地)。

所以我研究了如何从命令提示符永久设置一个环境变量，这是非常简单的!

setx JAVA_LOC C:/Java/JDK

然后我在代码中实现了同样的功能 这是我使用的(假设- JAVA_LOC是env。变量名)

        String cmdCommand = "setx JAVA_LOC " + "C:/Java/JDK";
            ProcessBuilder processBuilder = new ProcessBuilder();
            processBuilder.command("cmd.exe", "/c", cmdCommand);
            processBuilder.start();

ProcessBuilder启动cmd.exe并传递您想要的命令。 即使您关闭JVM/重新启动系统，环境变量也会保留，因为它与JVM/程序的生命周期没有关系。

Kotlin中的一个版本，在这个算法中，我创建了一个装饰器，允许您从环境中设置和获取变量。

import java.util.Collections
import kotlin.reflect.KProperty
​
class EnvironmentDelegate {
    operator fun getValue(thisRef: Any?, property: KProperty<*>): String {
        return System.getenv(property.name) ?: "-"
    }
​
    operator fun setValue(thisRef: Any?, property: KProperty<*>, value: String) {
        val key = property.name
​
        val classes: Array<Class<*>> = Collections::class.java.declaredClasses
        val env = System.getenv()
​
        val cl = classes.first { "java.util.Collections\$UnmodifiableMap" == it.name }
​
        val field = cl.getDeclaredField("m")
        field.isAccessible = true
        val obj = field[env]
        val map = obj as MutableMap<String, String>
        map.putAll(mapOf(key to value))
    }
}
​
class KnownProperties {
    var JAVA_HOME: String by EnvironmentDelegate()
    var sample: String by EnvironmentDelegate()
}
​
fun main() {
    val knowProps = KnownProperties()
    knowProps.sample = "2"
​
    println("Java Home: ${knowProps.JAVA_HOME}")
    println("Sample: ${knowProps.sample}")
}

如果您像我一样在测试中遇到这个问题，并且正在使用Junit5，那么Junit-pioneer提供了非常有用的注释。maven版本

例子:

@Test
@SetEnvironmentVariable(key = "some variable",value = "new value")
void test() {
    assertThat(System.getenv("some variable")).
        isEqualTo("new value");
}

怎么推荐都不为过。
