Jean-Francois Denise commented on WFCORE-3909:
----------------------------------------------

[~eduda], I would prefer not to make changes to all our launchers in order to address this requirement. These scripts are difficult to maintain. Having to update the system property is not ideal but  at least allows you to tweak the logging without modifying the properties file. I am going to close it as will not fix. We could revisit that in the future, we can see some attempt to get ridoff part of the complexity present in launcher, at this point we should be able to address the problem reported by this JIRA.

> *Scenario:* I want to change logging configuration of CLI using system properties. My expectation is that I just put the properties on command line as arguments.
> {code}
> ./jboss-cli.sh -Dlogging.configuration=... -Djboss.cli.log.level=TRACE -Djboss.cli.log.level=TRACE
> {code}
> However what I actually have to do is to put the properties into the {{JAVA_OPTS}} env variable.
> {code}
> JAVA_OPTS="-Dlogging.configuration=... -Djboss.cli.log.level=TRACE -Djboss.cli.log.level=TRACE" ./jboss-cli.sh
> {code}
> This is different behavior than I am used to standalone.sh script. IMO it is more natural to put the properties as arguments of the script.
