Description sapex 2001-05-09 08:37:18 UTC 
Hello,
I want to run my program with different system & env properties.
I expected this module to do exactly that, but apparently
it does not work: properties of the program do not change,
except if I use Internal execution. But I need to use External
execution, else the IDE will stop on System.exit or if there is
some problem with native code...

The sysprops module does what it says: permits you to change the system
properties of the VM running the IDE. If you want to pass -D options to an
external VM, you must configure them in the "Arguments" area of the external
execution service.
