All worked now? I assume you mean by the classes. Or did you download 
all sources?

Of course.

What do you mean by "system properties"? Something you can get by 
System.getProperty("name")? Then just add a custom flag: 
-Dsome.property=foobar
Or do you mean stuff like PATH or so? That's not possible. That's not 
possible with C applications as well (as far as I know)...
