I also think this is a good idea (I was always too lazy to do it.) As far as names are concerned, I'd go with the same name already used by the task with a 'set' suffix, i.e. for <java>/<junit>/<exec>, use <envset>. With <syspropertyset> and <envset>, both using a mapper with a prefix, you can then easily configure the runtime environment of <junit> for example, without changing the build script, by defining properties (easily done in a user-specific way) like runtime-env.SOME_ENV_VAR and runtime.SOME_PROPERTY. --DD ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail, including any attached files, may contain confidential and privileged information for the sole use of the intended recipient.
