Hi David,

There is nothing yet, but that was just an oversight.

Since access to the singletons in smtk::environment are wrapped, none of the other stuff needs to be. I’ve created a mockup <https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmb/smtk/merge_requests/1095> of one way to force the import of a session’s environment, but I’m open to ideas.

I think the mockup looks a little cleaner to the end-user than dlopen.

Sincerely,
T.J.
