Actually it is posible but you must run the build.xml as a external
tool in eclipse then send as a argument
-D<property>=<value>
Yet there is a small trick since ${workspace_loc} variable won't work
you have to create a new variable with the same value of
${workspace_loc}
for example
MyVar=/home/myuser/myworkspace/
Then you can do
-DMyproperty=${MyVar}/projectBBB/src
That should to the trick
