Hi,
I'm sure I answered this question (or someone else asking it) on dev@ the other day... I also would really prefer you ask on the users list so there's a permanent record (even if you need to privately ping me to take a look there).
Sorry I checked the dev list archive before contacting you directly and there wasn't a response to my original query. I thought that as this is more of a dev question than a user question the dev list would be a more appropriate place to ask.
Anyway, there's no simple answer. Usually surefire tests are forked, so the command line is not accessible. Even if they are not forked, that would require storing the actual command line which isn't done.
So -Dtest=MyTest is looked up via system properties to configure surefire correctly? But standard mvn options -o, -X etc are not passed through to surefire or stored at some point after mvn has been configured and execution has started? More specifically I need to access the -o param in a test. Previously I could lookup the QUOTED_ARGS env variable that is set in the mvn.sh script, but since 2.0.6, it is no longer exported in the script, this is also cumbersome as I need to maintain two sets of code for the windows/linux versions as they use different env variable names. I would have thought that the commandline that is built and used to launch mvn could be stored and made accessible to plugins should they need it, but I'm not familiar with the intricacies of mvn internals, hence the original email on the dev@ list and then the follow up ping to yourself. If it isn't already available to the plugins, would it be a feature that could be added to mvn?
