visual studio cordova - Getting rid of all the system path dependencies -


when install multi-device hybrid applications [mdha] / cordova preview i'm finding adds whole set of entries system path environment variable.
specifically following...

%java_home%\bin;%adt_home%\tools;%adt_home%\platform-tools;%ant_home%\bin;c:\program files (x86)\nodejs\

i prefer keep dev workstation system path environment variable clear of default os required values, avoid using following...

c:\windows\system32;c:\windows;c:\windows\system32\wbem;c:\windows\system32\windowspowershell\v1.0\;

the reason assume provides better performance searches exe/dll's not in path return faster , run less risk of being found , launched isn't part of core set of os signed exe/dll set can trust.

question

are doing @ ways allow future drops of mdha / cordova update operate without having add these entries ones system path?

it's pretty common of these tools, java, ant, android, etc require user set system environment variables, mdha today.

to answer question, yes, team looking ways in these variables can taken out of system path , instead configured locally in visual studio. stay tuned!
