If you set a system property via -DcompanyName="My Company, Incorporated",
then you can do:
<Parameter name="companyName" value="${companyName}" override="false" />
Tomcat will expand the ${companyName} to the value of the system property
when it parses the xml file. And, no, the property name doesn't have to be
the same as the Parameter name.
This is a Tomcat feature, but since you are putting it in a Tomcat
configuration file, I'm going to guess that that won't bother you.
