The library search path is not included in the PATH in the compilergcc plugin

[ollydbg]

Hi, I just build C::B trunk yesterday, and I found that if I link to a dll file directly, and the dll file is in the library search path. The old C::B can run the executable. But the latest failed, because it said the exe can't find the dll file.

Which means the PATH is not including the library search path?

I looked at the change history of the compiler gcc folder, and still not sure which commit cause this issue. The old C::B I'm using is built from 2025-02.

I would bet r13731 (Running compiled program fails because of wrong PATH) is related.

Thanks.

Yes, I think this is related.

Especially here:

The old "PATH" get restored.

I think when we click the "run" button on the toolbar, we should also set the PATH, and when run finished, we should restore the PATH.

Hi, Morten, can you have a look?
