Support mixing cmd line and pom configs
---------------------------------------

                 Key: MEXEC-35
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEXEC-35
             Project: Maven 2.x Exec Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 1.1-beta-1
            Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet


I am using the pom config like this:

                <plugin>
                    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                    <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                    <configuration>
                        <executable>${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java</executable>
                        <arguments>
                            <argument>-Xmx128M</argument>
                            <argument>-server</argument>
                            <argument>-classpath</argument>
                            <classpath/>
                            <argument>${exec.myMainClass}</argument> <!-- hack 
-->
                            <argument>${exec.myProgramArgs}</argument><!-- hack 
-->
                        </arguments>
                    </configuration>
                </plugin>

And then at the cmd line, I set ${exec.myMainClass} and ${exec.myProgramArgs}.
If I make exec.myProgramArgs an empty String, my main java class doesn't get an 
empty args array, but one with a single value of "-Xmx128M". If it's not an 
empty string, the  "-Xmx128M" isn't added... wierd.

Anyway, it would be nice to support mixing pom configuration with cmd line 
arguments better. Even if only to configure the general stuff (classpath, 
memory) in the pom and the non-general stuff on the command line (program 
arguments etc).
