That won't work because it will put the "-D" after the class name on the
command line in the "maven" script. You need to either hack the maven start
script or investigate the use of "maven.junit.sysproperties" in
project.properties. It has a weird syntax (I copied this from someone else)
but you should work it out from this example:
testinputs.dir=${basedir}/test_inputs
maven.junit.sysproperties=prop1 testinputs.dir
prop1=${basedir}/test_inputs
I also got a similar reply to the same question yesterday:
You can also use ${systemScope.put('key', 'value')} in maven.xml

Hope that makes sense,

Subject: JVM system property
Hello!
Please point me how maven works with system property. I get the next
problem:
When I try to execute under Linux a command "maven
-Dcclastbuildtimestamp=20040608174237 -Dlabel=build.11
-Dcclastgoodbuildtimestamp=20040608174237 -Dlastbuildsuccessful=false
-Dcvstimestamp=2004-06-09 08:36:01 GMT -Dcctimestamp=20040609123601 -X -b -p
project.xml site" I always get the following exception:
attaining goal build:start
attaining goal 08:36:01
com.werken.werkz.NoSuchGoalException: No goal [08:36:01]

Total time: 10 seconds
When I put the value of the -Dcvstimestamp key in quotes like this
-Dcvstimestamp="2004-06-09 08:36:01 GMT" it doesn't help :( but in
Windows2000 it works fine. Please shed light on this problem.
Thanks a lot for all your responses!
