afaik, it is surefire that forks the jvm, so surefire is where I would file the jira

if you roll your surefire version back to perhaps 2.3 you'd see the system properties being passed through

I also think this would be a nice enhancement.

You mentioned filing JIRA ticket against surefire-plugin, but isn't this more related to the maven core handling of -D envs and is better placed in
maven2-JIRA?

what I think would be a good idea is allowing the specification of a
list of regexs to match properties to pass through and a list of
regexs to match properties to exclude... with exclude taking priority
over include, and exclude having a default set to exclude the pain
points that drove the properties not being passed through in the first
place

perhaps you could file a JIRA for such an enhancement

P.S. file it against surefire... i'll be picking up all changes to
maven-surefire-plugin and applying them to failsafe-maven-plugin when
surefire next rolls a release

I see....

but at least I won't forget this, it took me a while to find out why
passing
-D params on the CLI did not have any effect on my plugin-setting.

none that I know... the passthrough that used to happen previously was
AFAIK considered a bug...

also consider that you need to purge certain properties from
passthrough, e.g. java debugger port to bind to

when doing a:
mvn verify -DanyParam=true

anyParam property is available inside pom.xml, but not passed through
to
my
running test-suite in surefire or failsafe plugin, which is very
annoying
because I have to manuall pass through these vars (by defining custom
properties in pom and referring it with ${xxx}).

Is there a way in maven to tell plugins to pass through all -D
parameters
to
other fork processes (like test runnings)? Or is there a special
surefire
plugin setting for this?

thanks.
