[gradle-user] passing jvm args to forked jvm

[Dan Durkin]

I was trying to pass a -D arg to tests like

gradle -Dfoo=bar test
which didn't work, as the forked jvm running the tests didn't see this 
jvmArg.

I added the following to build.gradle

test{
    jvmArgs '-Dfoo=bar'
}

This works and the forked jvm is passed the jvmArgs.

Question: Can I do this via the command line any way?

I tried:

gradle -Dtest.jvmArgs='-Dfoo=bar'
gradle -Dtest.jvmArgs.foo=bar

Thanks for any pointers.

Dan
