 <h2><a name="clonevm">ant.build.clonevm</a></h2>

 <p><em>Since Apache Ant 1.7</em></p>

 <p>The value of the ant.build.clonevm system property controls how Ant
 instruments forked Java Virtual Machines.  The <a
 href="Tasks/java.html">java</a> and <a
 href="Tasks/junit.html">junit</a> tasks support clonevm
 attributes to control the VMs on a task-by-task basis while the system
 property applies to all forked Java VMs.</p>

 <p>If the value of the property is true, then all system properties of
 the forked Java Virtual Machine will be the same as those of the Java
 VM running Ant.  In addition, if you set ant.build.clonevm to true and <a
 href="sysclasspath.html">build.sysclasspath</a> has not been set, the
 bootclasspath of forked Java VMs gets constructed as if
 build.sysclasspath had the value "last".</p>

 <p>Note that this has to be a system property, so it cannot be
 specified on the Ant command line.  Use the ANT_OPTS environment
 variable instead.</p>
