You have to be careful of this though, because some parts of the system 
(notably the logger in my experience) can initialize before even your 
main() entry point is called.  (And the logger does look at system 
properties to initialize.)

Sometimes System.setProperty() will work for ya, and sometime it won't.

But yeah generally this is an RTFM type question.

I think however Roedy might be asking for his web site, to make sure he 
hasn't missed any details or standard practice.  I think it might be 
better if he stated his goal, though, since his OP makes it sound like 
he's just looking for one answer.


P.S. I don't know any other techniques other than what's been mentioned 
so far.
