这是@paul-blair的回答转换成Java的组合，其中包括paul blair指出的一些清理，以及@pushy的代码(由@Edward Campbell和anonymous组成)中似乎存在的一些错误。

我不能强调这段代码只应该在测试中使用，而且非常hack。但是对于在测试中需要环境设置的情况，这正是我所需要的。

这还包括我的一些小改动，允许代码在运行的两个Windows上工作

java version "1.8.0_92"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_92-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.92-b14, mixed mode)

和Centos一样

openjdk version "1.8.0_91"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_91-b14)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.91-b14, mixed mode)

实现:

 * Does not actually modify the system's environment variables,
 *  but rather only the copy of the variables that java has taken,

public static void set(Map<String, String> newenv) throws Exception {
    Class[] classes = Collections.class.getDeclaredClasses();
    Map<String, String> env = System.getenv();
    for(Class cl : classes) {
        if("java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableMap".equals(cl.getName())) {
            Field field = cl.getDeclaredField("m");

            map.clear();
            map.putAll(newenv);
        }
    }
}

或者根据joshwolfe的建议添加/更新一个单独的var并删除循环。

@SuppressWarnings({ "unchecked" })
  public static void updateEnv(String name, String val) throws ReflectiveOperationException {
    Map<String, String> env = System.getenv();
    Field field = env.getClass().getDeclaredField("m");
    field.setAccessible(true);
    ((Map<String, String>) field.get(env)).put(name, val);
  }

尝试了上面pushy的答案，它在很大程度上起了作用。然而，在某些情况下，我会看到这个例外:

java.lang.String cannot be cast to java.lang.ProcessEnvironment$Variable

由于ProcessEnvironment的某些内部类的实现，当该方法被多次调用时就会发生这种情况。如果setEnv(..)方法被多次调用，当从theEnvironment映射中检索键时，它们现在是字符串(在第一次调用setEnv(…)时已作为字符串放入)，并且不能转换为映射的泛型类型Variable，这是ProcessEnvironment的私有内部类。

下面是一个固定版本(在Scala中)。希望将其应用到Java中并不太难。

def setEnv(newenv: java.util.Map[String, String]): Unit = {
  try {
    val processEnvironmentClass = JavaClass.forName("java.lang.ProcessEnvironment")
    val theEnvironmentField = processEnvironmentClass.getDeclaredField("theEnvironment")
    theEnvironmentField.setAccessible(true)

    val variableClass = JavaClass.forName("java.lang.ProcessEnvironment$Variable")
    val convertToVariable = variableClass.getMethod("valueOf", classOf[java.lang.String])
    convertToVariable.setAccessible(true)

    val valueClass = JavaClass.forName("java.lang.ProcessEnvironment$Value")
    val convertToValue = valueClass.getMethod("valueOf", classOf[java.lang.String])
    convertToValue.setAccessible(true)

    val sampleVariable = convertToVariable.invoke(null, "")
    val sampleValue = convertToValue.invoke(null, "")
    val env = theEnvironmentField.get(null).asInstanceOf[java.util.Map[sampleVariable.type, sampleValue.type]]
    newenv.foreach { case (k, v) => {
        val variable = convertToVariable.invoke(null, k).asInstanceOf[sampleVariable.type]
        val value = convertToValue.invoke(null, v).asInstanceOf[sampleValue.type]
        env.put(variable, value)
      }
    }

    val theCaseInsensitiveEnvironmentField = processEnvironmentClass.getDeclaredField("theCaseInsensitiveEnvironment")
    theCaseInsensitiveEnvironmentField.setAccessible(true)
    val cienv = theCaseInsensitiveEnvironmentField.get(null).asInstanceOf[java.util.Map[String, String]]
    cienv.putAll(newenv);
  }
  catch {
    case e : NoSuchFieldException => {
      try {
        val classes = classOf[java.util.Collections].getDeclaredClasses
        val env = System.getenv()
        classes foreach (cl => {
          if("java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableMap" == cl.getName) {
            val field = cl.getDeclaredField("m")
            field.setAccessible(true)
            val map = field.get(env).asInstanceOf[java.util.Map[String, String]]
            // map.clear() // Not sure why this was in the code. It means we need to set all required environment variables.
            map.putAll(newenv)
          }
        })
      } catch {
        case e2: Exception => e2.printStackTrace()
      }
    }
    case e1: Exception => e1.printStackTrace()
  }
}

设置单个环境变量(基于Edward Campbell的回答):

public static void setEnv(String key, String value) {
    try {
        Map<String, String> env = System.getenv();
        Class<?> cl = env.getClass();
        Field field = cl.getDeclaredField("m");
        field.setAccessible(true);
        Map<String, String> writableEnv = (Map<String, String>) field.get(env);
        writableEnv.put(key, value);
    } catch (Exception e) {
        throw new IllegalStateException("Failed to set environment variable", e);
    }
}

用法:

首先，把这个方法放在任何你想要的类中，例如SystemUtil。然后静态调用它:

SystemUtil.setEnv("SHELL", "/bin/bash");

如果在此之后调用System.getenv("SHELL")，则会返回"/bin/bash"。

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。

有三个库可以在单元测试期间做到这一点。

有Stefan Birkner的系统规则和系统Lambda - https://www.baeldung.com/java-system-rules-junit，允许你做一些事情:

public class JUnitTest {

    @Rule
    public EnvironmentVariables environmentVariables = new EnvironmentVariables();

    @Test
    public void someTest() {
        environmentVariables.set("SOME_VARIABLE", "myValue");
        
        // now System.getenv does what you want
    }
}

或System-Lambda:

@Test
void execute_code_with_environment_variables(
) throws Exception {
  List<String> values = withEnvironmentVariable("first", "first value")
    .and("second", "second value")
    .execute(() -> asList(
      System.getenv("first"),
      System.getenv("second")
    ));
  assertEquals(
    asList("first value", "second value"),
    values
  );
}

上述功能也可以通过系统存根作为JUnit 5扩展:

@ExtendWith(SystemStubsExtension.class)
class SomeTest {

    @SystemStub
    private EnvironmentVariables;

    @Test
    void theTest() {
        environmentVariables.set("SOME_VARIABLE", "myValue");
        
        // now System.getenv does what you want

    }

}

系统存根向后兼容System Lambda和System Rules，但支持JUnit 5。

另外，还有JUnit Pioneer - https://github.com/junit-pioneer/junit-pioneer，它允许在测试时通过注释设置环境变量。
