# This script is designed to de-Cygwinify the project variables set by
# the ctattach scripts.  If you aren't using ctattach (and you almost
# certainly won't be, unless you're a member of the VR Studio),
# there's no reason to use this script.


# First, de-Cygwinify the HOME variable.  Since this variable is
# hardcoded, we can just do it.

HOME=`cygpath -w $HOME`
export HOME

# Now de-Cygwinify the package variables for all of the trees we are
# attached to, e.g. $DTOOL, $PANDA, $DIRECT, etc.  These variable
# names are discovered by parsing the $CTPROJS variable, which is made
# up of a series of words like "DIRECT:personal PANDA:personal
# DTOOL:install"; we simply pull off each word and get the part
# preceding the colon.

# That gives us an indirect reference: we end up with a variable that
# contains, e.g., the string "DTOOL": the name of the variable we want
# to modify.  Bash provides a way to read the value of an indirect
# reference: ${!varname} returns the variable named by the contents of
# $varname.

# However, bash doesn't provide a way to set the variable named by an
# indirect reference.  But we can achieve this by using the env
# command, which accepts as a parameter a list of variables that
# should be reassigned, in the form "var1=value1 var2=value2 ...".  So
# we just have to build up this string and pass it to the env command.

assign=""
for packageDef in $CTPROJS; do
    packageVar=`echo $packageDef | sed 's/:.*$//'`
    decyg=`cygpath -w ${!packageVar}`
    assign="$assign $packageVar=$decyg"
done

# Now use the env command to pass all these assignments to emacs.
exec env $assign runemacs "$@"
