## Introduction

OpenCV can change its behavior depending on the runtime environment:
- enable extra debugging output or performance tracing
- modify default locations and search paths
- tune some algorithms or general behavior
- enable or disable workarounds, safety features and optimizations

**Notes:**
- ⭐ marks most popular variables
- variables with names like this `VAR_${NAME}` describes family of variables, where `${NAME}` should be changed to one of predefined values, e.g. `VAR_TBB`, `VAR_OPENMP`, ...

### Setting environment variable in Windows
In terminal or cmd-file (bat-file):
```.bat
set MY_ENV_VARIABLE=true
C:\my_app.exe
```
In GUI:
- Go to "Settings -> System -> About"
- Click on "Advanced system settings" in the right part
- In new window click on the "Environment variables" button
- Add an entry to the "User variables" list

### Setting environment variable in Linux

In terminal or shell script:
```.sh
export MY_ENV_VARIABLE=true
./my_app
```
or as a single command:
```.sh
MY_ENV_VARIABLE=true ./my_app
```

### Setting environment variable in Python

```.py
import os
os.environ["MY_ENV_VARIABLE"] = "True" # value must be a string
import cv2 # variables set after this may not have effect
```

@note This method may not work on all operating systems and/or Python distributions. For example, it works on Ubuntu Linux with system Python interpreter, but doesn't work on Windows 10 with the official Python package. It depends on the ability of a process to change its own environment (OpenCV uses `getenv` from C++ runtime to read variables).
