CommandLineTool Plugin - Is it possible to specify alternate jmeter.properties file?

[rob...@gmail.com]

I noticed that if rename C:\apache-jmeter-2.9\bin\jmeter.properties to say XXjmeter.properties I get error below.

So this got me wondering, why does the CommandLineTool plugin need/reference in file and if an alternate location could be specified like the jmeter switch -p.

I ask for we do use a customized jmeter.properties file in our automation.  So if CommandLineTool does not use anything in jmeter.properties then I could just not worry about it.

Thank you.

CMDTool requires jmeter.properties, because it uses JMeter core classes to parse JTL files. 

I suggest you not modifying jmeter.properties file at all and use user.properties files instead. Those files are intended for per-user changes. Jmeter will search user.properties file in current start directory.

There is not command-line switches to pass different JMeter.properties file for cmdtool.
