Environment variables are an Operating System dependant concept. Because Java is OS independant it has no way of accessing environment variables. About as close as you are going to get is setting System Properties on the command line when invoking the JVM.

Obtaining the PID is also an Operating System concept that is not supported directly by Java. I have however seen it done using native JINI calls to a .dll. Now that I think of it, I bet the same can be done to get to the environment variables.

In 1.5.0, I can use the system.getenv method to find out the contents of an environmental variable however I can't print a list of the variable names themselves.

System.getenv() is deprecated (for quite a while now).

System.getenv() is not deprecated for Java 5 (or rather it has been undeprecated):
