Hello all,
It looks to me that the initial question was not clear, anyhow, my question
is :
I was trying to override the 'user.properties' property in the
'jmeter.properties' file to refere to a different file name, from the cmd
line. and this is not working. ???
the goal is to specify the user's properties file at the cmd line. I did
this : 

%JMETER_HOME%\bin\jmeter -n -ttest.jmx -Juser.properties=my.properties

but this seems to not override the user.properties defined in
jmeter.properties. ?? I thought that the cmd line props are processed first
????

any idea ?
thank you !
