I haven't found I nice way myself, but something like this met my needs at the time:

startScripts << {
def lines = windowsScript.readLines().collect {
if (it ==~ /^set DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS=/) {
return 'set DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS=-Dapp.home="%~dp0.." -Dlogback.configurationFile=%~dp0..\config\logback.groovy'
} else {
return it
}
}
windowsScript.withPrintWriter { writer -> lines.each

}
}

Andrew is right, there is no direct way to do this right now.

I tend to use:

startScripts {
jvmOpts = "-Xmx1024m"
inputs.property("jvmOpts",

) // for incremental build to work properly

doLast {
def optsEnvVar = "DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS"
unixScript.text = unixScript.text.replace("$optsEnvVar=\"\"", "$optsEnvVar=\"$jvmOpts\"")
windowsScript.text = windowsScript.text.replace("set $optsEnvVar=", "set $optsEnvVar=$jvmOpts")
}
}
quot;
startScripts {
jvmOpts = "-Xmx1024m"
inputs.property("jvmOpts",

) // for incremental build to work properly

doLast {
def optsEnvVar = "DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS"
unixScript.text = unixScript.text.replace("$optsEnvVar=\"\"", "$optsEnvVar=\"$jvmOpts\"")
windowsScript.text = windowsScript.text.replace("set $optsEnvVar=", "set $optsEnvVar=$jvmOpts")
}
}
quot;$jvmOpts
startScripts {
jvmOpts = "-Xmx1024m"
inputs.property("jvmOpts",

) // for incremental build to work properly

doLast {
def optsEnvVar = "DEFAULT_JVM_OPTS"
unixScript.text = unixScript.text.replace("$optsEnvVar=\"\"", "$optsEnvVar=\"$jvmOpts\"")
windowsScript.text = windowsScript.text.replace("set $optsEnvVar=", "set $optsEnvVar=$jvmOpts")
}
}
quot;")
windowsScript.text = windowsScript.text.replace("set $optsEnvVar=", "set $optsEnvVar=$jvmOpts")
}
}

Thanks for ideas Andrew and Luke! How would you guys feel about doing something like I mentioned similar to Tomcat?

For example in `unixStartScript.txt` around line 68, include this:

CLASSPATH=$classpath

if [ -r "setenv.sh" ]; then
. "setenv.sh"
fi

I like the idea personally.

Luke,

I created a pull request to update the templates:

Please take a look when you have a chance.

Thanks.
