Here's an issue on this topic: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1525.
The ability to reference environment variables appears to have been
added to plexus-utils, but I haven't had the time to check it out yet.
I'm not sure how environment variables can be referenced, probably
either ${env.BLAH} or ${envars.BLAH}.

Greetings, my name is Adam Altemus. I am a computer science student @
Indiana University of PA. and am doing an internship. I read in a
thread that you said that you can acess environment variables in the
pom.xml
from the settings.xml. Could you explain to me how this can be done?
AFAIK, you can use java system properties like ${user.home} etc. (see
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/system/
properties.html ), but not your operating system's environment
variables (like $CATALINA_HOME, etc).
There has been quite some discussion about this, so search the
archives if you want to know why this is so (build portability, IIRC).
Cheers,
