EnvironmentVariableFetcher
Fetches the specified environment variable and includes it in a new attribute.
Environment variables are convenient especially if certain standard folders and parameters need to be referenced in a workspace, but the actual locations or names can vary from computer to computer.
The available variables will depend on which platform you are using. For example in Windows you can find a list of variables on your system by opening Control Panel > System > Advanced (or Advanced system settings link in Vista)> Environment Variables.

If the specified environment variable does not exist, an empty string is put into the given attribute.
Usage Notes
Within an FME workspace you could use the value retrieved to:
- 定义数据集的输出位置(与工作台帮助文件中描述的功能类型Fanout结合使用)
- Define the location of a file for theAttributeFileWriterorAttributeFileReader
- Define the location of a workspace to run with theWorkspaceRunner
- Write the value to some type of metadata output
