To allow your parameter to be specified from the command line yoour
parameter specification needs to define the name of the commandline
parameter that it will accept. Eg
/**
* @parameter expression="${foo.bar}"
*/
private String verbose;
Should work with a commandline of
mvn cleartrust:extract -Dfoo.bar=Testing
The POM configuration should work.
Are you sure you've defined the verbose element within your plugin
definition's <configuration> block?
