title: SpringBoot: How to provide VM Argument in Spring Boot App, while running from Eclipse
body: <p>I'm Using Spring Boot 1.3.0.RELEASE.
  And for my application, I'm providing some external jar path like below, while I'm running the app from CMD.</p>
  
  <pre><code>java -Dloader.path="lib,config,C:/TM/ojdbc14-10.2.0.2.0.jar,spring" -jar ticketmanager-application-0.3.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now, when I'm trying to run the app from eclipse, I'm add the <code>-Dloader.path="lib,config,C:/TM/ojdbc14-10.2.0.2.0.jar,spring"</code> to VM Argument. Like the snapshot shown below.</p>

  <p><strong>Editing: Adding Maven Spring Plugin configuration ------------------------</strong></p>
  
  <p>Here, the configuration section, I have added for the <code>loader.path</code></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;plugin&gt;
                  &lt;groupId&gt;org.springframework.boot&lt;/groupId&gt;
                  &lt;artifactId&gt;spring-boot-maven-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
                  &lt;version&gt;1.3.0.RELEASE&lt;/version&gt;
                  &lt;configuration&gt;
                      &lt;layout&gt;ZIP&lt;/layout&gt;
                  &lt;/configuration&gt;
                  &lt;executions&gt;
                      &lt;execution&gt;
                          &lt;goals&gt;
                              &lt;goal&gt;repackage&lt;/goal&gt;
                          &lt;/goals&gt;
                      &lt;/execution&gt;
                  &lt;/executions&gt;
              &lt;/plugin&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Therefore, my question,
  <strong>How should I add this Argument? because it's not working :(</strong></p>
