The documentation boost doesn't provide any example for creating a child process with a custom environment using process::child(...).

An example is given with process::system(...) but the function system has less possible operations (such as pipes or waitpid) so I would like to have a full example using process::child if possible.

in system.hpp, system_impl, which supports custom env, is implemented in terms of child,

template<typename IoService, typename ...Args>
inline int system_impl(
 std::true_type, /*needs ios*/
 std::true_type, /*has io_context*/
 Args && ...args)
 !check.succeeded)
 return -1;

 while (!exited.load())
 ios.poll();

 return c.exit_code();

So the call to system from the docs:

bp::system("stuff", bp::env["VALUE_1"]="foo", bp::env["VALUE_2"]+="bar1", "bar2");

which calls:

template<typename ...Args>
inline int system(Args && ...args)

 typedef typename ::boost::process::detail::needs_io_context<Args...>::type
 need_ios;
 typedef typename ::boost::process::detail::has_io_context<Args...>::type
 has_ios;
 return ::boost::process::detail::system_impl<boost::asio::io_context>(
 need_ios(), has_ios(),
 std::forward<Args>(args)...);

translates into this function, so you should be able to do the same.
