-----------------------------------

Hi Alexander,

Environment variables are now part of the property look up process. See also [1].

Here is en excerpt from the modified docs:

  Properties are looked up in the the local scope first, in the context scope second, in the system properties scope third, 
  and in the OS environment last.

Let me know if this works for you.

> It would be very nice to be able to access environment variables in configuration files.
> Maybe like in ant with <property environment="env"/> and then ${env.PATH} to access variable.
> In my use case, it's necessary to get the path to the property file to load...
