    - #### getVariables

          public java.lang.String[] getVariables()
                                          throws BuildException

      Get the properties as an array; this is an override of the superclass, as it evaluates all the properties.
      Overrides:
        `getVariables` in class `Environment`
      Returns:
        the array of definitions; may be null.
      Throws:
        `BuildException` - on error.

    - #### addDefinitionsToList

          public void addDefinitionsToList(java.util.ListIterator<java.lang.String> listIt)

      Add all definitions (including property sets) to a list.
      Parameters:
        `listIt` - list iterator supporting add method.

    - #### size

          public int size()

      Get the size of the sysproperties instance. This merges all property sets, so is not an O(1) operation.
      Returns:
        the size of the sysproperties instance.

    - #### setSystem

          public void setSystem()
                         throws BuildException

      Cache the system properties and set the system properties to the new values.
      Throws:
        `BuildException` - if Security prevented this operation.

    - #### restoreSystem

          public void restoreSystem()
                             throws BuildException

      Restore the system properties to the cached value.
      Throws:
        `BuildException` - if Security prevented this operation, or there were no system properties to restore.

    - #### clone

          public java.lang.Object clone()
                                 throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

      Create a deep clone.
      Overrides:
        `clone` in class `java.lang.Object`
      Returns:
        a cloned instance of SysProperties.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException` - for signature.

    - #### addSyspropertyset

          public void addSyspropertyset(PropertySet ps)

      Add a propertyset to the total set.
      Parameters:
        `ps` - the new property set.

    - #### addSysproperties

          public void addSysproperties(CommandlineJava.SysProperties ps)

      Add a propertyset to the total set.
      Parameters:
        `ps` - the new property set.
